Well, it finally worked!  Here we have a C&O passenger train section eastbound from Sugar Grove, West Virignia (east staging) climbing towards Hannahville, Virginia which is above it.

That's a verry nice looking layout. Do you think that you could share some more pictures. Thanks , Ryan

This is a picture that is at least a year old (I should have looked at the date before posting) but gives some idea of the size and arrangement.  This is taken close to the door.  The area in the first photo is not visible but is towards the top right (photo right).

Verry nice. ;)

I take it that it based off the C&O?

SteamGene

In that it is the same basic area, yes.  And it interchanges with the C&O at Noah Junction with the C&O having trackage rights between there and Sugar Grove.

Dear Gene,

Fantastic !

Can you show us a track plan?

Sincerely,

If your loco is too heavy to lift, you'd better be able to ride in, on or behind it.

SteamGene

Joe,
I don't think so.  I probably have something that I could use, but I've never really tried computer graphics.

Gene,

Thanks for replying. 

Not to put you through too much hassle, but could you post a photo of a sketch?

What size is the room?  What floor is it on?
