Well, I started a different thread after deciding I wanted to add a small switching area and improve accessibility to parts of my layout. That thread is here:
https://modelrailroadforums.com/forum/index.php?threads/questions-about-switching-area.34327/
Since the switching area design is pretty complete and I'm laying out the design for the adjacent coal mining area, I figured it best to create a build thread. And so, from now on I'll use this thread to gives updates.
Some background, the layout was started right before the pandemic. I knew we would all end up at home for a while, but I never envisioned what we now know as the longest year on record. My son was part of the motivation, so getting trains running was a priority. That made me overlook some basic design flaws, but I was okay living with them at the time. Well, that time ended and now those changes have been made - well, they're in progress. Check out this thread for the beginning work:
