Scouting dad.  Here is a short video  of part of my town . It is still a work in progress.  The Miller lights are really an eye catcher. Thanks for asking.

Junior.  I don't  have a track plan drawn out to show. I would draw it out on paper at night then later tried to work it in. A lot of trial-and-error.  Ill post some pictures  of the entire layout as soon as some more scenery is done. Thanks for the comments. 20210722_144717

FarmerJohn a big thanks for posting the town video. looks like a scene out of a movie. I like the way the streets are at the front and back of the buildings. I don't have quite enough room to do that on this layout. I'll keep it in my back pocket of ideas for the next one.

I thought the Miller Barber sign kind of looked 3D in their photos sure looks like it is in you video. Besides that one, I am trying to decide between a Woolworth or Rexall building sign. Of course there are several window signs worth a look as well.

Hey FarmerJohn....

No worries....no rush! Just thought if you had a layout plan handy it would be fun to see.

BTW.....your curved street scene really reminds of Back to the Future II ! It's very cool!

That’s an awesome looking layout! How big is it?

My MTH locosound F3 from an old set pulling a freight train and the engine from my first set, the Pennsylvania Flyer pulling a passenger consist. I was pleasantly surprised to find the smoke unit on the Pennsylvania Flyer was working again, I thought it was broken for the longest time. My best guess is it got flooded with fluid.

N&W guy. You asked how big my layout is . My basement is 2650 Sq ft. I built my house with my layout in mind . I've dedicated  my whole basement  to  my trains. It's a big project  but super fun. Thanks for asking .

Wow farmerjohn - you lucky dog! Your basement is bigger than my whole house (not including my basement)!

I gotta find me a basement stretcher to expand the WVRR again. Does anyone know where I can borrow or rent one?
