After Seeing CNW1961's Wonderful Miami Switching layout I decided I would try my hand at building an East-Rail switching layout of my own.
My Layout room is only 8x11 feet and I have doors on both sides so the most I could get away with was a straight shelf with some extensions, I am currently working on benchwork and I should be done with that in a few days.
Here is my layout design thread on Trainboard, I even got Lance Mindheim to give his input

Here is the Track-plan, its not very visually appealing but it works
Minimum Radius is 24" and turnouts are Walthers code 83 #5's and a couple of #8's
