I think Norm is a great modeler. I haven’t followed him much after he started building his second layout. However I was slightly disappointed that his second layout looked much like his first one. I get it, you like what you like. I guess I was hoping for something different. I probably still would have complained if he did something different

Ok. Let me say it this way. His current layout is much like his layout he built right before his current layout. IIRC he bought a new house within the last 3-5 years and started a new layout. That one looks much like the last one to me. Again he’s an excellent modeler I was just hoping to see him do something different, but that’s just me.
