A Better Link Here

Sorry everyone, one of these days I’ll figure this out better
Here are two links one larger than the other. The one on the left will give you the idea on one page where the one on the right will give you the finer details (so far at least) with elevations in inches in the red square boxes. Just keep clicking until you get the desired size

Dang-nab-it!!!
Disappointing news comes with this post. It is starting to look like my train room will be “on hold” for a little while longer. With this Christmas season now over, well the gift buying part anyway, I figured I can get back to the room. A couple unexpected bills has darkened my progress. My family accountant (read wife, she is a Financial Analysis in her paying job) says we have to pay some lingering debt down before I build anymore in the basement.
The overtime I’ll be getting next month will now have to help pay for these bills and my room will have to wait I guess. However I am in negotiations for a smaller cut of the pie just to keep things progressing at least.
I have still been working on my new layout plan and it is still in the design mode but the mainline is set and some of the towns and industries as well. Here is a peek at what I have so far. I am trying to figure out how to model a Gypsum Mill in the space with the “Y” in it so if you have any comments or suggestions on this or anything else with this design I would be most grateful.
If this doesn’t work let me know and I’ll try to fix it.

Layout Design Fix
A friend of mine brought to my attention that the design plans could not be easily seen or followed. I looked into this and realized if you clicked each picture as it comes up eventually you will have no problem seeing them although they were so large you had to scroll the page around to see it all. In this post I am shrinking the size of the picture and if you click on the picture bellow then on the next one it should bring it up on its own page. One more click of the picture will clear the whole thing up for you. There may be a easier way to do this but I’m still “green” at this so hopefully some day I’ll dicover a better way.
- Lower Level
- Yard Level
- Upper level
- First draft
- 3rd attempt
- 5th attempt
Anyway give them a look over and let me know what you think. I am working on another one now and once I have it or one worth posting I’ll post it.
See Ya
