Mark,
Not to rain on your parade, but let me caution you about track work behind scenery. From my own experience , it's a disaster waiting to happen. And putting a turntable there?
You'd better be sure you can get to it easily and quickly without moving anything because you're going to spend more time there than you ever dreamed of (hope I am wrong).
Rest of it looks super! Can't wait to see it.

George,

Your caution is well taken. You are correct, the place with the worst access will be the biggest trouble spot. I want to see how this plan would work out in 3D. It may be too twisty for the space. I am up any suggestions of any kind, even some way to do it like my original idea. This I know, I want mountain scenery, and the backdrops will be of great use.

BTW, my artist daughter was impressed with the backdrops.
