You have been busy! Looking forward to seeing your layout in person one day.
Layout is awesome!!!
Congratulations on the installation of the turntable. Can't wait to see those backdrops when you install them. I, myself, use the two sided tape method.

This is great to know! What kind of tape did you chose?

Jason enjoyed the video. Turntable/roundhouse install will really make a difference.
But nothing will change things as much as the backdrop. The layout will be transformed when you install it.
You are fortunate to have the Detroit 3 Railers as a resource. They are a tremendously talented and helpful group.
JD - Sweet! 6 long trains at once. Like the Bigboy too, little too shiny maybe haha. I second that 2 sided tape might be the way to go for the backdrop install. I will caution that it is super sticky, I mean once you stick something to it, it doesn't want to let it go. Since you will be working on top of the layout at this point, if are going that way have helpers, cuz if you goof it up it maybe hard to fix it. I'm thinking now, maybe adhere the top first, going left to right, no kinks, then put a run on the bottom and go top to bottom, pulling it tight. You don't want bubbles and wrinkles, hence the helpers. Take your time, I don't envy you at this point, but I'm sure you will pull it off just fine. Good luck!
If you have LCS you can setup the TT to work with it.
Nice update!
