Peter,
Thanks for the kind words!
The latest update is that I am waiting for a couple of specialty pieces to come in to finish laying the track. The delay is fine as I am going to paint a wall in the Chessie System scheme. I just haven't decided which wall yet.
I got some coaster wheels at HD to make some movable storage to go under the train table. I'm tinkering with the idea of attaching them to the table legs also. Right now, the legs have leveling felt furniture pads. The table is relatively easy to move around, but that's without scenery. If I go ahead with the plan to put display shelves on the wall behind the layout, it would probably be best to use the coasters.
As I mentioned before, I took a different approach to building the train table by placing the baseboard flush with the top edge of the frame. I have already noticed a few areas where I should add more support beams.
