    Hey, I resemble that remark 😄😄😄

    Are you happy with the scale you picked vs the space you have?

    I basically wanted as much train as I could get in the space allotted (by the wife). Going around the room on a 18" shelf, I would be very tempted to go N. 18" wide would allow you to put scenes between the edge and track.

    In my case I wanted mostly a operational layout but still have the option to sit back and rail fan. That said, I needed to be in N scale. However, if you are just going with a shelf 18" x 10', I think I'd go HO.

    Some changes. As I started looking at the layout for updating, it surprised me just how many things I've changed, moved or adjusted. This photo is the one I posted 2 years ago Tis is the same area today'
