Justin, After reading your last post I feel we might be in the same boat as far as missing the center piece.
Every ISL I ever built was "planned as I build" and each was a success in their own rights.I been fooling with Slate Creek going on 2 1/2 years and IMHO it proved to be a fool's errand in many ways starting with a plan that was about a 1/2 ton over my layout size limitations even in N Scale.
After the pending move I will move forward and start construction once I get settle in and up to speed.
I have decided I'll return to my "plan as I build" method since that always seem to work quite well on my past layouts and once built I'll share the final plan..I will keep in mind some of the ideas others had for Slate Creek.
