"Midland Valley layout owner Floyd Brittian standing at the end of his layout closest to the crew lounge. Behind him to the left is staging, over the workshop area. The layout has a very high fascia and is free-standing. Note the recessed lighting valance overhead with a continuous row of fluorescent tubes--it is supported by the backdrop and does not extend up to the ceiling."
While your blogger knows little about this layout, it apparently is quite large and inhabits a home basement. Also, the scale appears to be HO.
The presentation of this layout struck me as interesting for several reasons. First, the valance does not follow the outlines of the layout. Second, the layout skirt and fascia are one. Or one could observe that the layout has one of the world's deepest fascias but no skirt at all. Also interesting is how a large telephone handset was incorporated into a recess of the fascia. Finally, the color of the fascia and valance are a neutral grey that is somewhat out of the ordinary for model railroads.
