I assure you, the GMLTC thinks in three dimensions. The layout we're
working on now will have trains running at least four different heights, and
maybe five if we can squeeze one more into the design...
We try to put "interesting" things at many different heights, because that
causes people to spend that much more time checking out our layout. And a
lot of times kids will notice stuff before their parents do, because we put
stuff down at their level.

I thought there was rule that at some point on the layout the trains had to
cross over each other. ;-)
The layout we are working on has a climb into a mountain, where a ski resort
will be and three tunnels to provide transaction from scene to scene. A
little more work but I hope the results will justify it.
Have a look at the work so far, this is a work in process, and let me know
what you think. We have worked more on the mountain and I hope to get some
more pics up this weekend of the waterfall and tunnel.
