Very nice job on the track! I can see the new Scalextric VW Bus going round that track, hope it makes it up the pass! :D
The wall looks great and the piece you found for the signage looks like it'll work great!

Very nice. You have a fine feel for this. Did you do railroad scenery before?

Yes I had a small scenic N scale railroad, I never got to do scenery on my big railroad before I pulled it down to build a slot track :) - but most recently I have done miniature figures and gaming tables for my son (Warhammer Space Marines)

The track is coming alone nicely. I really like the stone wall. Jim

I love looking at your track. It's very similar to what I've envisioned by "someday" track to be: a two-laner winding through Appalachia. I think it's that old Hillbilly story. We leave looking for a better life, than spend our lives longing for the hills we left. Someday, I'll build them in my basement. Thank you for sharing this.

Funny, that's what I had in mind when I designed the swamp track I'm doing- I grew up in the bayou region of the Mississippi-Louisiana Gulf Coast.

That is just great looking scenery.
Nice work your version of the BRP has captured the look of the blue ridge. very well.
