There was mention of adding 3-7 tables to the current train layout during
the show.  This got my mind thinking and I came up with this new design.

Some of the new additions are:
-A third loop so we can run three trains.
-A huge outer loop without any S curves allowing us to run those longer
trains.  You know who you are.
-Spaced out sidings for better viewing of the trains not running.
-A lowered table that we can build a ravine and bridges on.

Give me your thoughts and suggestions.
