Thanks Val, skylights are an intriging idea, will give that some thought. Bet you they would be filthy in no time. I remember reading about the Harmon roundhoused on the NYC, the cinders on the roofs of the roundhouses (they had 2) were several inches thick. This was noted by the company photographer who had gone up on the roof to take some shots. In fact, this memory reminds me to find the books I have by that photographer and see what details I might find in those photos, I had forgotten about those books! Thanks.
Jack, thanks. I do not have a track plan but did post a crude one on a thread about the planning process for my railroad years ago at the "old" (wait, we're the old, make that the original, aw, forget it!) gauge, now Zealot. Here is a link to it:
