Benchwork came first ...

Here is a portion of the benchwork. The railroad is of two-level construction; the lower level is 30" from the floor, the upper level 48" high. To the left above is Paducah, on a  6' x 8' section; then an 8' run to the back wall. The run along the back wall is 14', and then the longest run (out of sight on the right) is 27'. In view is a 16' long peninsula. The layout is then complete with a 16' run from the right to a 6' square that  holds the helix. The width of the entire railroad is 2' from the wall. Ken Heyl and Bob Gouirand were great help in getting the benchwork completed.
