Tom,
There has been quite a bit of progress. The benchwork is mostly done track is going down. Allan Miller stopped out and will be doing a small series of updates in OGR.

Wow what a fantastic space to have. That is going to be a great layout....can't wait for the updates.
Dave,
Definitely take lots f pictures, judging by the construction, this will be a way cool layout.

Not my cup of meat (far too large) but a marvelous environment. Shore hope the cleaning lady does train layouts. 
Pete
It looks like the beginning of another great layout!
I will be looking forward to updates on this one.
Will be interested in seeing some currents pics 
That is a great looking layout so far. Thanks for taking and sharing pictures with us.
There aren't any large home layouts west of Ohio so we enjoy seeing them out here in the windswept prairies.

Dave,
That's great Allan will be doing some updates for all readers! What a nice space for a layout.
Outstanding. A Track plan would be nice. A Picture or a few is worth a thousand words. 
Dave
Brian stopped in here at work (nep) with our former owner. Had a nice chat with him. Hope to get up your way soon!
Here's the track diagram for Brian's layout. There have been some revisions made since this was created, but this one provides a good idea of the general setup.

Allan,
Thank you for posting the track plan! Since I just live down the road from Mercer in Butler, I hope to see Brian's layout in person someday! It quite a project, and those guys up that way know what they are doing!
Excellent this will be an operators dream!!!

This layout is almost walking distance from my house.
Dave
I guess you'll be walking a lot!
Don
Wow....Now that is some track plan! I trained my eyes and tried to follow the track over the whole layout...got dizzy...stood on my feet... and threw up. I'll try again later.....
I just stopped out to Brian's shop to see the completed track work. It is very impressive fully assembled!

Sam,
There are a handful of 4-5 guys. Brian is very motivated and does much of the work with Sam Landfried. I just pop in and check progress with a beer in hand.
Dave
There will be some more photos in OGR in upcoming issues.
