You, sir, are a genius.

Thanks, but no. David Hoogvorst (AnyRail creator) is the genius.

I must win some sort of waffle award for having a 100 page layout thread with very little actual change to said layout!

More like an "Anti-Waffle Award." Which we will bestow at the next Rail-B-q you actually attend.

Unless you actually make changes to the layout between now and then...

I take it the theme of the new section was heavy mainline running and no local switching? Thus each section has its distinct kind of railroading.

You get your 4 track Broadway!

Here's a Clerihew about Ed. K.

Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
But mention his law
and you've pulled your last straw!

Alternate version:
Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
He asks excitedly "Did you say Ménage à Trois?"
No, I said "Ed's Law."

Dave this pic reminded me of your overhead Birdseye shot:

Strange you mentioned that.  When I first saw it and posted it I was thinking of Dave.

Organ (track) donor...  Maybe if Enola had been designed with more than just car storage in mind, it might survive.   :trollface:

Excellent use for it.  It was a great photo module, I loved the engine house.  Really captured the feel of the scene, if not the vastness. 

Good thing it's adequately documented in GMR.

Really is a shame you can't/won't keep Enola. Though you may not see it, it really is a cool yard even within the parameters of your build. Put it in a corner cover with a blanket and forget about until the urge comes to attach it to the layout  :D  Your total layout build reminds me of how Dave Popp is building his little empire; one section at a time. And as Lee said, the engine terminal rocked and the whole yard scene was great for photo ops. Plus you need a place to store all your cars right??
