Okay, I must have done something wrong. The thumbnails don't enlarge when clicked. Just says Loading... forever. How do I fix it so you aren't looking at little tiny pictures?

That happens to me occasionally - usually I move the mouse a bit and double click again and it works nicely...

Thanks. Double click does the trick.

Yes, I second that.  And so neat and clean and under controlI’m in awe, or is it envy....?
Nice work,

Wait, a regular dodecahedron for the base?  That's cool & nerdy!

I do foresee some challenges getting the trains to traverse the helix though...

I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that.

No No No, What we have here is a failure to understand just what a track "block" is.  :trollface:

There's a prototype for everything.
If you can't make it perfect, make it adjustable.
DCC is not plug-n-play.

I’m just hoping it is not all glued together with Cream Cheese.

Dodecagon, 12 vertices. Dodecahedron is 3 dimensional with 20 vertices. That's being nerdy.  :D

No traversing problem. First train up the helix - the cream cheese express.

Not to take anything away from the helix (:)) but where did you get those grey mini storage bins on the upper right of the picture?  I need a system like that.
