<P mce_keep="true">swapilot:</P> <P mce_keep="true">I applaud your effort to get started. I wish I had even as much room as you do. I'm sure you have your own idea of what you want in this layout, so I find it hard to make suggestions, but here goes. </P> <P mce_keep="true">I'd think about how you see your layout in operation, and decide if you really need that many staging tracks on the "right" leg of the L. You might want to put in a runaround or two in those tracks, if you want to do some switching and use them more than just a place to store trains. And I wouldn't take out any industries, I'd try to find a way to fit a couple in on the right leg. That would give you some "back and forth" switching action. </P> <P mce_keep="true"> Just a few suggestions, you've got a good start. Good luck.</P> <P mce_keep="true"> Rob in OKC</P>
