Southern Pacific Switching Layout

[SSWUPinSA]

Hey Justin,

I've been watching this thread now and can relate totally to your possition and set backs. I have a few threads here on a layout I wanted to build but due to a beautiful baby girl and a possibility of a move I have had to stop all dreams at thias point. It has at least made me very aware that a project like this needs to be STARTEd and driven but at the same time realistic in its size and the amout of time you will take before recieving the reward for completion. I really would like to give you encouragement to go for it!

ED... Can I steal your design too?? Or can you help me with a similar one based on my designs in my thread? I like that it is so simple and has a good few operating options... Jack Hills O scale NCIR has been an inspiration for me in reasuring me that a simple layout can be very effective if thought out. My last design seems too complicated:



Now I feel I need to move it a bit and have the main area for switching along where the staging is now in the south. And move the Staging to the east.

Maybe Ed can give me some much needed "kick in the butt"...lol

Time I started building regardless of moving...
