I really like your idea! I've probably got a couple dozen of those 12
x 24 plates. I hadn't really thought of using them, but why not!
I'll scrounge up what I can, and bring it tomorrow.
I also thought that we could use a couple of raised baseplates there
for some change in elevation. Stick some trees on them. Have the
river run through them, etc. This one would be great, for example.
I've got a couple of them:

There is one problem with your idea. The train track needs to stay
level. We had talked about raising the track there to allow for
bridge support under the track. We'll have to discuss that tomorrow.
