Two other comments. The lower level shown as a staging area is not that. It's the Buffalo line at Lykens Jct just east of Sunbury Pa. The helix is made by Proses the same people who make a bunch of the Bachman layout tools. It was shipped from Istanbul Turkey when I ordered it !!!. It leads to a 15 track off layout staging not used during op sessions. It's a place off layout to store traffic rather than having it show up again the next session.
Love the simulator controls. I'm a retired engineer. It's always fun to see how folks do them. The layouts are incredible.
I enjoyed that one. Nice to see the photos as Mike progressed through his builds.

The Williamsport yard area is 3' wide not 4. Mainline runs in back so very little need to reach that far.
