Can you guess, I just got a digital camera
some more track in tonight. I have to get more risers under the grade to the back wall. I may cut some bridges in there as well.
Max grade is 4% across the back and there is a few feet at 4.5%. The loop is 11 feet long.

Sony 4 megapixel. The company paid for it. It was kinda lame using hand drawings. Mind you, just plain old benchwork was boring.

I've been back to work and playing catchup so i fell behind with my layout. I just finished the first section of the south wall which will have a yard and two higher elevations of single track. The roadbed on the upper levels is deliberately cut in a wavy, irregular line.
