Designing a One Town Hawaiian Railway

Inspired by the one town layout concept, I want to explore what can be done in my space using On30 locomotives and rolling stock to represent a very small portion of the OR&L (Oahu Railway & Land Company). 

Please share your thoughts and sketches!

I’ve added a “dream space” to keep in mind while developing the first module for future use in a layout.  3/24/18

And now for something completely different...

When I'm not in the basement working on my layout I'm at the desk navigating these forums. Sometimes I get the train itch when I'm not home like my lunch break or the waiting room at the doctor's.

What train games do you play on your phones?

I used to play Pocket Trains and Tiny Rails. Looking for something new perhaps a Railroad Tycoon/Sim City.

Wait... what did *I* do?????

What’s on your workbench?

I’m starting to think about home.  What is on my workbench?   Cleaned up before leaving....   Gotta rely on your pictures and thoughts!!!

Let’s go!!!  Have a good!!!

ALPINE RAILROAD IN NJ-LOOKING FOR SUGGESTIONS

I am asking the MHR community for some help in solving a problem I created with my choice of layout scenery. My layout was originally conceptualized 25 yrs ago as a much smaller layout with no intention of adding a backdrop or anything like that. I started this current version with the old idea then expanded it because I had the room to do so. Although I do plan on adding a backdrop at some point, I didn't take this into consideration when I stuck with the basics of how I originally thought the scenery would look. 

ALPINE RAILROAD IN NJ-EVOLUTION IN PICS PART VII

When I last posted I had just completed adding rocks to the newest section of my layout. I flew to CA for vacation on 12/27 and am still here now in LA on business until Feb. Of course that means I don't get to work on the layout but before I left I took a few more photos to share after I had colored all the remaining white plaster with Woodland Scenics earth pigment. It really makes a huge difference. Even without grass or trees the layout starts to look more realistic.
