New logging / mining layout

Hi, After a pause of 6 years in modelling, i decided to start over again. This time i have in mind a 1400mm x 600mm layout. On30 gauge, logging or mining scene. I named it Wolfwater village. The initial layout plan is:

There will be a "station" area with a double track and a siding leading to the logging area. I plan also a bridge over a river with a trestle and a small tunnel on the left side.
