Sorry for taking so long, but I finally took pictures of the set! (Now no longer smelling like smoke!)

I think my favorite part of the Layout is the Plakids station. The Plakids Station already looked very nice in its original form, but the English signage gives it a whole different vibe. The locos are also very nice, too. The faux-Super Chief's coaches look like they'd work well as background coaching stock, and the E3 seems like it might be an older version? The version of it I see Takara Tomy selling right now has an entirely different livery, and given this one has the same service title as the current E6, I guess the E3s on that service got usurped by the E6 at some point IRL? Poor E3, lol. The spiraling section looks very impressive, but actually building it was a struggle since it had to work around the presence of those underground tunnels. I am very happy with this though, since the plethora of track and risers will give me a lot of freedom to experiment with new Layout ideas.
