HELPFUL feed back welcome

So in my abilities to branch out, I went to a good friends house and shot his model train layout...it is the entire side of one garage and as much of the second as his wife will let him have!!! Basically it is an "L" shape. I won't post all the photos...Just this one for now...I'm trying to better my PP skills...seems like a never ending battle...anyway, helpful feedback very welcome...

Hi Renae,
I saw your thread, and no one had answered you yet. So I figured I would - the only thing I could see to improve right off the bat, was that white strip across the bottom, that looks like a piece of posterboard stapled to the layout. That bright white draws your eye, and is distracting, so I did a couple minutes of quick cloning to eliminate it. Since I was just using your small jpg, and not the original, there's probably a bit of jagginess, but you get the idea.
