Had to build a second raised island for the main loops (didn't want to build a helix and not enough area to keep the grade under 2.5%)

The two major loops are 325 and 450 feet of track

Using some Home Depot backsplash tiles to simulate the stone work on a bridge end.

Late last year, I finished the cover between the train barn (my workshop) and my wife's garden shed (she shed)

Lots of steel false work to keep the grade for the twin loops, will build bridges later.

The train shed is 10'x16' and has been customized to hold rolling stock. I steel work bench will support two rails for working on trains.

Curved forms are about 8" deep and 10" wide. The castle block is then glued using interior/exterior glue to the cured concrete footings.
