    Welcome to TrainBoard!

    It would be interesting to know more about your layout. Any photos or a layout plan you might be able to share?

    Welcome aboard! I think you'll find our N scale community is large, active and has a variety of skill levels and skill sets that may prove helpful and a source of inspiration and encouragement.

    Those two stub tracks at lower right- I'm guessing you have some future expansion in mind?

    Yes. Those are for future expansion. I have started a thread in the Layout section so we can continue any discussion over there. Thanks.
