What would you like to know? 8-)
I'm currently focusing on making a long layout with buildings at either
end. I expect to use all your straight segments, plus any others I can
borrow from anywhere else. With ~90% of the layout straight, you
could get away with making VIA longer if you wanted to. I'm also
going to try to keep lots of room in the corners, in case we feel like
letting "Big Red" out for a run. :-) Same thing with height - I intend
to make my bridge high enough for 8-wide. Kevin: Is 14 bricks enough?
By the way James, the train looks great.
