My layout is based on the Chicago, South Shore, and South Bend Railroad from Randolph Street Station in Chicago to South Bend, Indiana. It is based in the mid 1960s when I first saw the railroad in South Bend. The layout is 30 by 60 foot. Running NCE DCC and signaling via CTC using C/MRI.

Update
Today Fred continued work on the remaining CTC modules. Soon we will have to address the programming.
I installed the fascia for the extended (larger radius) New Freedom. Need to add some internal framing and a few cross braces. So this week should start putting down the two track roadbed. Using my usual Homasote spline roadbed method. May send a photo when I get some of the roadbed in place. Was successful in removing the unused reverse loop so got almost new Homasote and lots of unused flex track.
Also need additional lighting for York as now that you can see from the harbor area to Baltimore and York, I noticed how dark York is. But what a Wow view from the harbor now that the backdrop at the previous Warrens Gap is gone. The scene is about 40 feet deep and really shows well.
