Oh yes...there's still a lot to do. Overall, the layout has a "too new" look to it. There's a ton of weathering of every building on the layout. Plus, after viewing "Sweethome Alabama" I can see the definite need to mix up the greenery on the layout. Granted, we have a lot of the same bushes and trees in the NC/SC area, but I should mix it up better.
The "big buildings" at the west edge were placed there to hide a longer train as best as I could. I love running big Amtrak, Santa Fe, Southern or UP passenger trains on "excursion" runs, but needed a way to hide the long consists...so I chose the Walther's Superior Paper Mill.
