The scale mile is great! Your layout always looks good! As We discussed earlier on this topic, our laundry room is adjacent to the open window in the brick wall of my train room. I will attach another photo.
There is a door just to the right of the stationary tub, and the furnace is to the left of the cabinets. That is a portable heater on the shelf I put on the window sill. I put it there to blow heat into the train room, because our daughter had the that room jammed with art tables, projects and materials. I plan to take the heater down and put it in the train room when needed. My wife is happy with the shelf, so I could run some sidings in over the stationary tub and just under the cabinets. Once we get to the water heater and furnace, there is another problem, because there is a narrow passage past the furnace to the other door. I couldn't do a loop, but I could put some sidings in. The window sill would dictate the lowest track in the train room, which would be about 46 inches. That makes the highest track 54 inches high, which is about the height I had my last HO layout at. That is a little higher than I was thinking this time, but not unrealistic for me.
Thank you for getting me thinking on this again!!
In my opinion, one can never have enough hidden sidings
