Looking at these pictures, Where would you all recommend access panels, or cutouts for walking? I was thinking of removable track bridges, but I am not really hearing much good about them... I really appreciate any thoughts you may have.

Granted, it's still a work in progress, which is why the drills and wood are still there... I have had this in my head for a while. There will be a hole in the wall (or 2) in the wall in the first picture, as that little room is now my workshop and the trains and trolleys can go in there to be worked on and parked.

And happy new year to all!

Did you plan to build across the doorway? Otherwise
I don't see a need for access or walkways.

If a bridge were to be called for don't sweat it.
It's really not that difficult and it sure beats
crawling under. Been there, done that.

I agree with Don. The depth looks like it's less than 4' and you shouldn't need an access hatch.

But I would paint the wall a lighter shade of blue. Or put up a back drop like this before you go too much further.

Of course you'd have an access in needed. But how could we say where if we don't know your track plan ?

You did a great job cleaning up that wall. I like what you have done so far.

It might be a bit of a problem reaching (laying) the inevitable track along the back wall and any switches that you may incorporate. I speak from experience. But if your young and nimble it should not be prohibitive.

Keep up the good work and I like that background that lehigh offered at Amazon. I may just use that on my layout.

Once you start putting down roadbed, your access points will become obvious.
