I can relate -- I always have problems with dust on my layout. Our house is heated by force-air gas, which is notorious for spreading dust around.
Once or twice a week, I have to brush the dust off my locos with a camels hair brush, especially if the locos have been sitting for a week or more. Meanwhile, the layout gets covered in layers of dust over time. I can easily see it on the layout's roads while the grass (and green) areas steadily look less green and more grey. To get around this, I occasionally remove everything off the layout and vacuum it down, but since that's a pain, so I don't do it very often. Guess I could always place a sheet of light plastic over the layout when it's not in use?
