Sepia toned track plan
The Dapperling RR features mining, logging, and even has limited passenger service.

 The Dapperling Railroad

This line serves Cassville, Browntown, a mine, and a logging operation. During the summer, limited passenger service is provided between Cassville and the road leading to the Plainvue Resort.

Cennpen Railroad, helper district

This mountainous layout uses helper engines to pull the motive power up steeper grades. You can build this layout on one level, using a crossing as shown. If you want more realism, you’ll have to raise a good portion of the track. This will require an overpass instead of a crossing, as shown in the elevated version.
