So, moved in now at the new place, still unpacking a bit but I couldn't wait to get started on the new layout. So here it is, the progress from the very beginning. I have a forth table that needs to be built, but I may decide against it...taking up a lot of room as it is. This is all I have aquired thus far...still VERY new to this. Now that I have space, and a layout plan I can start seeing to it. This is just a track I put up to run some of the new rolling stock and mess with the new engine a bit. Alot more track is on the way. I will have to end up either cutting a hole out of the middle or pushing the tables back a bit so I can get around the layout as needed. I am planning on running Legacy, and using remote switches, however these items are not cheap. Also, this weekend I will be getting foam board to cover the table tops with for adding scenery. And all I have right now are O-36 curves but I am planning on running at least O-48. If you check out the last pic I have a pretty cool double stack...but sadley it won't run on O-36 Hahaha.

Well, that's it for now...thanks for taking a look! Also, ANY tips are greatly appreciated since this is my first actual layout!
 
Wow, does that N&W diesel ever look great. I model in N-scale, so anything in O-scale seems gigantic. Very cool.
