Hey Everybody,

I've just started building a semi-permanent layout upstairs at my house (i.e. not on the floor) and thought I would share. Comments, suggestions, etc. are welcome!

This is just the start, I obviously have to move my modulars in, get more baseplates/roadplates, throw a couple more trains on the rails (metroliner, custom E7 set). I will also be adding a tunnel with mountain above for my WIP narrow gauge layout. More on the Tweetsie (shown here) layout and custom E7's in the future. I'm awaiting a few BrickLink orders for ballast, trees, scenery, so more to follow!

BlueBrick plan:

Full layout (with trains moved for clarity):

Yard view (looking head on to the trains):

Looking good. I have a suggestion for the sheets of plywood. For my layout, I took in a green Lego badeplate and had them make color matched paint. Then I painted the plywood. Just something to consider. :)

Hey Alex, thanks! I'll eventually have everything covered up with landscaping and baseplates (whenever you can actually buy them in the US), so I'll be skipping painting. That and I HATE painting!

looks good!

I may suggest expanding then yard with another switch and another lane.

You already have four trains and have space for one more.

Don't you want eventually to have two more trains? :) :)
