With the arrival of the Plarail Large Maintenance Station, I decided to do a revamp of my under-bed layout!

The station part, also the most accessible part, now can handle up to 5 trains at once!
(While the entire layout can have up to 7 trains, the remaining two must be running though)
The boring stuff first: The rest of the layout. There's only basic double track, hidden away safely by a bunch of stuff under my bed.

On one side, however, things get a bit more interesting, the double track rises up, then one track goes down, and the other got raised further.

Then here comes the station, the lower track has two auto-switches, first one leads to stop track 3, 4, and the second auto-switch, which leads to stop track one or the innermost track. The upper track has two stop tracks, one before and one after the slope.

I ran into a few troubles with rail size not matching up but the end result is great!
