Hi all,
This is the start of my new HO layout, it is a very simple inglenook design 7 feet long by 1 foot wide plus a fiddle yard of single track abut 3 feet long.
It lives in my living room hence the dimensions.
The setting is the present day some where on the East Coast of the US.
The plan is to have a large where house along the rear track with 5 car spots to make switching interesting and the front track will be a transload track mainly for steel rebar and lumber. Most of this track and the middle track will be set in concrete to allow forklifts access to both sides of the lumbers cars.

The foam has been used so I cut below the track bed so I can have a small culvert just past the swtich.
