My idea of a layout size is bigger is better, but now back to reality. After almost 50 years of marriage and dating my wife wanted a divorce, which  destroyed my plans of retiring and improving my 24 by 36 foot layout. My layout wasn't ideal and some what neglected while I built a career that involved a lot of travel, raising two children, putting them through college. This layout was all built with friends while we were young.  My plans were to rebuild parts of it and enjoy it.

I have long been a dreamer. Making this really good for me is that I am able to visualize and picture things so well, like how models will look, how a layout scene will appear, and even how a track design will operate. While this has served me well over my lifetime, this ability has not been able to keep me out of trouble. That is, from wanting a layout that is not realistic for my needs or my capabilities.
