    Looks like a good start. I would second the implementation of an anti-train jumping device of some sort.

    just a photos with some trains. main line 2 is the coal a train on the incline. main line 1 is the long mix train bottom of the photo
    PC180097.JPG just a shot of trains on the bridges bottom is main line 1. and top is main line 2. right side of photo is the train room the left is the mechanical room and then into the family room. (main line 1 bridge is 4' 4" and main line 2 is 6' both have safety switches and side protection. the plexiglass on main 1 has saved my locos from the hard cement floor in a derailment.)
    PC180093.JPG this is the next project to be put in. it is a 22" tomix 2 line bridge and it is green in color, my sweetheart like the color so it will probably stay. happy wife happy life.

    PC180086.JPG
    different view. i did jut in a small run around siding on the inside of main line 2.
    PC180085.JPG in the family room. far left gray portal is main line 1. bottom right gray portal is main line 1 coming or going. the gray portal just up is main line 2. it enters and exits from the mechanical room in to the family room. then it goes back across the bridge and in to the train room.
    PC180082.JPG a view from the hall the train room is to the left. main line 1 bottom main line 2 top left. hard to see it goes in front of the water heaters.

    PC180079.JPG just a update PC180074.JPG another look with main line 1 in top left and main line 2 top right PC180075.JPG a over view of what i am calling my spaghetti bowl. the newest parts are the main line 2 going form my old set to the new parts. top left is main line 2 going into the mechanical room and on to the bridge.

    Thanks again for all the kind words and great ideas. working on a video of the updates and will post it when it is done.
