I used WinRail 8.0 to draw both the track plan and the 2-D view, and enhanced them using MS Paint (for the clouds, trees ans shrubs). WinRail 8.0 is the same program as the Atlas freebie RTS 8.0, but has a number of different track libraries, whereas RTS is limited to Atlas track.
I have to admit it takes a good knowledge of the program´s features and a lot of patience to draw a picture like the one presented. A building usually consists of up to 100 different shapes and lines, all grouped accordingly. For me preparing those drawings has turned into a hobby within the hobby - it´s a lot of fun!
Just to give you and idea, here is a pic of that little loco:
