Notes:

This was Don's third layout. The first one being an A.C. Gilbert-based layout, and the second being a "scale" switching layout built on a door. The latter was to test some layout construction ideas. The home layout was taken down to be able to store Scenery Unlimited products. Don also had an S layout at the company office.
