Stein;

I agree. Callum pulled that off very nicely and looks better than having an "imagined" structure off the layout. Maybe not too practical for a warehouse type structure where you'd only be able to see the cars through the doors, but for the BlueLinx facility it came out great.

You did a nice job of capturing the look of that location in Hialeah, FL; and with just a little compression. Adding a 6 foot staging track or extending the layout with a "scenery only" area on the left side; you'd have a nice prototypical switching layout.

Wish at times that I'd gone with a layout depth of 24 inches rather than 18 inches; at least for the main industrial area, but I think I've worked out a plan that captures the look and feel that I'm after.
