How I designed the track plan for Lamar, Colorado and why - K&W Model Railroad Design Series

What an excellent way to design your scene! I wish I would’ve done this before I started working on my layout!😊

"Low Relief" is the term you are looking for

Commend you on trying to stay true to your modeled area….and the thought that is going into developing each scene…

It’s a tight scene and you already have a lot of track. So an additional crossover would have looked odd in my opinion. The grain scene itself is really good. It reminds me of dozens of small towns here in Arkansas. Soybeans and rice are the big crops here.

What company made your grain bins?

I like it. The wider your layout, the more scenery you have to do in the foreground. Sometimes less is more.
If I had a wraparound layout there would be part of mine that was narrower.

Looks prototypical too me. It's good to keep refreshing your brain.

Maybe you've said it in a different video but what turnouts are you using in that scene?

Very nice design and thought process. Like the concept!

Like the concept on the switching track. Definitely doesn’t hold up the mainline that way. Great progress enjoyed the share. Have a great day and Merry Christmas

Very cool! Merry Christmas 🎄

very nice my Friend big like 😊😊👍👍

Very nice. Thanks for sharing.

Great explanation of your track work. Keep up the great work.

You don't need to explain everything. I like your railway the way it is. Isn't the steam engine going to run with passenger cars for Christmas? I like you for who you are on the inside: a happy-go-lucky fellow who loves playing trains. Merry Christmas.

Great use of space with your track plan and structure placement!

I like the scene divider idea you used there. It allows the most of both scenes while keeping the visually separate. Great work 👏
