I found the plans for the wall supports in a Model Railroader Magazine a few years ago. They are easy to build and super strong!! Here's the first one.

TD,
This will be Tomah Wis. in the 50's. It will contain a small car repair yard complete with car shed, office, team dock and various small structures. It also will have a feed mill, lumber yard, passenger station and some of the downtown as flats. It's about 7' long and 3' wide at the end.

Well I got the soffit around the corner and put in the ceiling tiles then hung the next light. The masonite will be put on when I cut the backdrop pieces. I also have the longer section of foamboard getting glued down.
next the shorter piece.

TM,
I should sit down one day and figure out how many feet of track I will be using. But between the two yards, all the sidings and the double track main, I don't want to know how much it is all going to cost. Since I went from Atlas to Peco track the price is about double!!
