Yes finally! ;D Though I dont have much set out at the moment *Cough*Staging*Cough* But I figure I might show it anyway. :roll:


Sorry the picture isn't very good quality, I had to zoom out a lot to fit the whole yard into it, and on top of that, photobucket only accepts Jpegs. Basically, it has 8 tracks total, and 6 tracks available for storage. (The other two are bypass tracks.) The overall yard length is about 12' 8”, which in HOn3 is pretty good, considering narrow gauge doesn't run very long trains.

Now for a little summary about my layout. Really, what caught me onto HOn3 was the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic (And it IS scenic!!!) RR & the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge RR's wonderfully mountainous terrain & scenery, Blackstone Models wonderful K-27's, and Mountain Model Imports also wonderful K-28's and (Yet to be released...) K-36's. My layout is to be a freelanced representation of the C&TSRR and D&SNGRR, located in southern Colorado & northern New Mexico. It will be an around the walls layout, in my 9x16 basement. (Well, it’s really a room in the basement...) So, that is really all I have to say for now! There should be an update tomorrow! If not, then on Friday.

EDIT: Ooh, the forums resizing didnt do much good, here is a direct link to the pic: http://s164.photobucket.com/albums/u23/Vekoma_fan_boy/HOn3%20Layout/?action=view&current=HOn3Staging.jpg. Click it to get a larger size.
