Around the walls benchwork construction

It's not like I haven't been working in the basement.  I kinda got stuck on the question of a center peninsula.  After several weeks of analysis-paralysis and on the suggestion of my friend Ray, I decided to just "start building a railroad".   This planning stuff is optional--apparently.

I embraced the idea and began building single-level benchwork around the entire basement.  Here's how it's going so far.  Notice the white paper signs on the wall.  I'm playing with the idea of modeling the A&M Railroad in Springdale, Arkansas.  The signs denote LDE (layout design elements) that I would include in the layout.  Having these named places marked on the wall is helping me visualize how this might actually come together.
