We really like this idea. Have something in mind if we can make it happen.
Love your layout. You and Tammy are quite creative.

What's really special about this story is it one of a combined husband and wife effort. Not often in our hobby to we come across these circumstances. You both are very fortunate. Elizabeth and I know. There is not a day that goes by that we don't talk about the layout or trains. Makes a marriage more special.
This goes a step farther as both of our wives are supoer talented when it comes to layout building. That's as good as it gets. We so admire the two of you and what you are accomplishing.

I just went for more pink foam board to hot outside now to cut any I find using table saw keeps things straight and true cut wise. also I need to think on how to wrap the underside of top pink foam in front of tv as need 2 tunnels and have a riser with wiring for upper 2 tracks so need to scenic that in yet be removable for any wiring issues that might popup. also need the top area reachable from front and to each side as pink foam cares not to be sat on like one can do with plywood and risers with supports! am working on a not to scale drawing of what goes where with this area pink foam board wise. I also need to add 4 more risers with wood support to hold pink foam top straight and as level as can be as its basically going to float on it all so it can be removed if need be for removing tv in case it goes belly up! It may be awhile before I post a diagram of how this area will be done had another idea with this have to discuss with tammie see if it sounds doable artistic/scenery wise.

in the first video of water area where I talk about the coal tower stairs look to the left and you will see some brown tipped foliage that is what tammie made to look like cattails that is the word that escaped me in making that video.
