Welcome to the forum!
That looks like a great layout. I'm wondering if I could copy it sometime and reproduce the same thing here? as I've been thinking of building a new 6-foot-long layout. I'd probably want to widen my version to 2' wide and make its length 6 to 6.5' (the max amount of room that I have).
I currently have a similar layout. It's an Inglenook with one extra siding and a turntable at the other end where I can store locals (basically my fiddle yard). I model British trains, depicting the British steam era, so my scale is 00 which is similar to HO (slightly larger but the same gauge). The actual layout area is 1x4 while the fiddle yard is 1x2'.
Keep us posted -- looks like a practical and fun layout.
