Ok, tell me how you are so organized!!! I'm working on a 10'x14' and it looks like a bomb went off in my train room. At least the mess keeps the wife out! LOL Great layout!

@jimbronie  Plastic wheels will work for a while if you don't run a lot. Just make sure all your cars have weight in them. If you notice how lite the Tyco stuff is vs the atlas etc. Add some lead weight to the cars. Most cars are easily done. You can use old wheel weights from a tire store. I melt them down to a mold but you don't have too. Silicone them down inside the cars.

I see you have a lot of old tyco rolling stock. Have you changed out any of the plastic wheels and trucks? I have the same stuff and have always had derailing problems and someone once told me that it was because of the plastic wheels on the rolling stock.

Looks like it will be a cool layout. Are you going to do prototypical operations?

Very nice. It'll look very cool when you add scenery. I think that double crossover you have is kick-ass!
