SP Dalsa Cutoff

This time, we go back to the American Southwest (or wherever the heck SP's Dalsa Cutoff is) for another layout based on an actual trackplan. I wanted to make this feel more like a layout in a room, but due to the trackplan and what all I wanted to include, there wound up being a lot of wasted/empty space. Unless you are messing around in the staging areas, the layout is meant to be viewed from inside the tables/backdrops. Some of the curves are tight, that again goes back to the trackplan and getting it to fit decently, but there isn't too much clipping between rolling stock.

The layout features a single loop that goes all the way around the room with a few industries here and there for operations. AI trains can run around the main loop in either direction, but the mainline is NOT signaled and was only made with one train in mind. There are also two ways to "bring trains on/off" the layout over near the Flatonia area--hence the wooden tables behind the backdrops--but only one has a loop set up in case you want the train to return.

Southern Pacific is the prototype, but Union Pacific and ATSF stuff looks great on it too. Supposed to be set anywhere between the 1970s to early 2000s.

Two yards, seven industries, Smalltown USA and a country music reference all included.

The only mod you need to have is the Micro Speed Scenery (made by Microcosmologist) for the cornfield behind the small yard. Everything else is completely shape/prop built and suggested car capacities for industries are parked in said industries.

I hope you all enjoy it!
