Hi Mark,

Putting up sheetrock on the train side of the basement. The other side is completed, except for my wife decorating the finishing touches on that side.  No rush for finishing the walls, because I still do not have a clue on layout or for that matter what size and shape of the baseboard. I will have final room measurements for sure. That is about the only thing that will be concrete. Not sure what railroad or cities or industries to include. So far I am looking at a coal mining operation and small town and from there I am not sure! What terrain, what era, what possible railroad line etc. Also looking at how to draw out track with tunnels and different levels. So I have to do a lot of thinking. I would rather do the building rather than the thinking design wise. Btw I was working on remote wifi operated switches and block detection. Those are in the prototype design stage, using small micros that will run off local track power. What are you doing for switches and do you want/have block detection?

Hope you had a great Memorial Day! Again great job on the layout!
