As someone who is building a very large N Scale layout (19 feet by 3 feet) I have to say that I sometimes wish I had an oval. An oval layout, you can still get away with yards and other options for running trains in more than just a circle, but not have the intimidating amount of space in the...
Thanks you all for the likes and encouraging replies! I'm so happy to have people who appreciate the hobby to share it with!
On the eve of winter break being over, and the kids returning to school, and thus a lot more work for me 😔, it's time to share some more I did while I had the time...

And do I have been, even if for only a couple minutes a day! Starting off with playing with some...
