Exiting the tunnel on the west side   Moving along that side to the milk platform, warehouse and the water tower   The lake is in front of the campground  Passing in front of the second window  Approaching the west turn back curve warehouse  The west turn back curve with church and a couple of stores  That's the whole layout. |

CountryJoe, do you have a track plan you could show us? Here it is. The location of the upper loop is slightly off.  The layout is 10'9" x 20'4" |

Thank you Joe. I used Mod Podge for the lake. It's very easy to use and I think it gives good results.

Great layout,I like how it is organized and how you did your roads, and your crossings.

Thanks Joe. The roads are black foam core and the crossings are Woodland Scenics N scale foam roadbed. I cut the roadbed down the middle and put the tapered side on the outside rails to make room for the wheels. It looks good and is super easy to do.

Nice photos of your layout, Joe! How high is tunnel portals? I am curious because I can't run some of my cars on my Christmas Layout because the clearance is too low in the tunnel portals. In order to have enough clearance I would need at least 10 inches which to me is little to high for tunnel portal.
