Fascinating! This will make a great little layout if it can be done with the
SHS track system.
But I find the following, similar operation equally fascinating :

Tim Warris of Fast Tracks is vuilding this in HO scale and is using all
hand-laid track... probably the 8th wonder of the world!

Subject: {S-Scale List} SHS Terminal
Hi All, The great news that SHS is going to have a new builder soon got me
inspired to design a layout using SHS sectional track and turnouts just to see
what was possible.
I concentrated on making it interesting to operate and with easy to build
scenery. Since we are always limited in our layout space I decided the best way
to get a realistic layout would be to model a place where the real railroads
were also limited in space so it depicts a New York pocket terminal, somewhere
in Brooklyn or the Bronx, maybe between the CNJ terminal and the DL&W Harlem
transfer.
If you are not familiar with these terminals check out Phil Goldstein's

for lots of photos and info.
