At the beginning of December, I underwent surgery at the Cleveland Clinic.  Since then, I have been at home on sick leave from work recuperating from the procedure.  Since there isn't much to do at home besides run model trains, I have become absolutely fascinated admiring the videos of the NJ Hirailer's layout on Youtube.  

 

My dad and I actually had the privilege of visiting this layout two years ago; I hope to make it up there again sometime this year.  I am curious, are there any track plans of this layout that have been published online?  Not that I plan on constructing this in my basement, but it would would be helpful to understand and decode the maze of tracks that I see on youtube.

This is a work in progress.  It's probably about 95% complete.  Needs a lot of cleaning up but it will give you the gist of the layout.

 

Enjoy.  Any questions fell free to contact me directly.

Nobody had seen the track plan before except me in my head.  Chris and John E have been working on recording it for about a year now.  There is still a 13 track passenger terminal and a coal mine missing from it

So true.  And you can imagine how tired we are of picking Ben's head!
