My permanent layout is still in the design stage but I want to set up a temporary layout on a large outdoor patio so I can play with & test the stuff I already have. However, I cannot leave the layout setup all the time in some areas. <br />Assuming I use standard track segments (no flex track), what is a good method to put this together without assembly/disassembly of each joint when I want to run trains? I know that snap track solutions exist but that means a lot of individual connects to make/break each time I use it. That is what I am trying to avoid if possible. <br />I was thinking about attaching track to thin plywood strips with each piece of plywood holding several pieces of track. Have not tried that yet but I am afraid it will be too heavy and unwieldy to be practical. <br />Any good solutions out there? <br />Paul <br />
