A little bit of progress to show off. Ties are stained and ballasted. Once they dry I can vacuum and start installing the turnouts and laying out the yard 
Carpentry is also done, I hope. That was getting pretty boring.
The one picture shows where the switching lead will be, but I don't know. I planned on a river in that area and it really messes up the scenery possibilities. I might move the switching lead back on the other board, opening up that river area more. But I also like the idea of the switching lead having a small trestle or bridge over the river, so I can't make up my mind.
Thanks for looking.

I got my first train when I was three,
put a hundred thousand miles on my knees.
