ON30 20x40 DRGW Narrow Gauge
My buddy and I are building a 20x40 ON30 layout. It is a triple deck around the walls kinda layout. We only work on it during the winter time as the rest of the time we are actively involved with 7 1/2 inch gauge out door railroading (live steam). So here is the track plan, some pix, and a link to our layout website. Comments are always welcome (good or bad). Thanks.

February layout update
Greetings,
