It's about time I post a new twist to my progress. If you follow the Forum topic What Did You Do on Your Layout Today, then you already got a heads up. For those folks, you can skip the two paragraphs in italics, since I copied it from my post a couple days ago. If not, then read on.
I might as well give a heads up on the farther reaching purpose of the cleanup. The cleanup is in the small room I started a layout in two years ago. Then my wife suggested I build in the family room since the girls were married and the furniture was junk. So many of you contributed to a layout design for that room too. However, as time passed the need for access made the room 'shrink' to some extent. So last year I started building on the end of the room that was emptied. I built the two loopback turns one on top of the other with no connection between the two. The next part of the layout that is to be built will climb up the canyon where a massive wooden shelving unit is. The shelving unit is to move across the room to where our older daughter's upright piano is. Well we hit a snag getting the piano moved. Daughter and son-in-law had moisture problems in the lower level of their house and had to throw out some stuff. Other stuff was moved upstairs. So it is dried out, but none of us has the money to put into correcting the problem where the moisture is getting in. We don't have the manpower either because my son-in-law's dad, newly retired like me, and like me he had his knee replaced 4 days before mine. So, the home repair at our daughter's is on hold, moving the piano is on hold, so freeing up the rest of the layout space is on hold. 
So, I mentioned it to a few Forum members, Mike, Chris A, DoubleDAZ Dave. Dave helped me with a simplified layout plan for the old small room, just so I can get some trains running until I can do the bigger project. Besides, I'm getting tired craning my neck to see trains run on the Ceiling Central RR and blinded looking into the lights in all the passenger cars. 
I still can't climb the two step ladder to replace them with freight cars. 
Also, I am finding like Jim, I am a Looper. Switching back and forth on the existing track on the new layout isn't what I want to do for the foreseeable future.
So here is the proposed track plan and there is a SCARM file in the attachments box.
You may recall I used this simple method to build my shelf on the wall that is to the left on the track plan. I intend to use the same on the top wall on the drawing next. This method has proven to be rock solid considering all the stuff I have had piled up on it over the last year and a half.
