For this week, my AOTW is my switching layout as of yesterday.

| Nice. So much for the "point a to point b" theory. That is gonna be a nice challenge to get there on that layout.

That's the point. It's actually based on a switching layout in an October of 1976 model railroad magazine issue. "The Timesaver".

| Nice set up Stephen. Endless photo possibilities. This vintage car brings back happy memories. The attractive figures add to the scene.
