I have a 4ft x 7ft or 1219mm x 2134mm japanese passenger style layout that I have worked on for a few months now, and I am just looking for advice on any last changes to make to the track before I start working on scenery and structures. My plan is to have the front half be suburban/urban and the back half be rural.

One area that has me stuck is what to do with the front straight with the double crossover and crossing. Should I leave it as is or am I missing some potential in this open area?

Any help/advice is appreciated!

Still hopeless at the game but I am indeed "just playing more" to get better
