First, welcome aboard!
I'm a bit fascinated with the scenery. The hills remind me of some photos from a trip my parents took to the far northeastern USA and the maritime provinces of Canada.
Also, I'm intrigued with the wording that that's one of your layouts. I assume we'll be treated to photos of others as well?
Anyway, that's a nice layout.
Carpe Manana!

I love all the colours and texture you were able to pack into such a small layout. It looks great. Hopefully more pictures of your layouts/trains are on the way! Welcome to the forum.

* Hi Richard ! Welcome to Tyco forum. That is a good set of photos of your layout. Quite a mixture of railroads. It all looks well thought out. At first glance I think everything is HO till I read the text. You've done a lot of scenic work. What is nice about a layout done as yours is the photos you can take. You have many places and different angles to view you equipment from.
* I am surprised you didn't place a second passenger platform along the second mainline by Arlee station. A lot of different ways to do it.
* I'll be at the first frost train show to stroll around with the crowd. I think I go there to eat sometimes. It is about a hour and a half drive for me. Kenny should see that show. I have no idea of what he would think of the York TCA show. At my age my legs cramp up after all the walking to get from place to place. It is so big with so many buildings. And they are a distance apart.
* Well again Welcome Richard.

I know someone who has one of those 0-6-0s. In the same livery too.

You have a second layout! They both look really cool though.
