Srry my above post made no sense about turnouts! just digard it! I meant to ask it like this! Is it ok to use entire pieces of Flex track through out a lay out as curves! and what should the distance in wireing be! how many inches or feet? as a good rule of thumb! and where should I sauter(SP?) the wiring to the rails? should it be where they conect? I know I know, i need to read up on this stuff and I think I have but my memory is Kinda scrambled! Im thinking every 20' is what I heard but im not sure! and I think it has some thing to do with the amount of spures and sidings you have as well! will current need to be seprately supplied to those? <br /> <br />O' and I haven't had time to mess with that Track Cad thing! I'll play with it tomorrow! I know that this is MY LAYOUT But I can't decide on what I man't to do! as far as seenery... I don't know what time of year to do! but Im leanning hevily towards winter and snow i think it's neat, and there is something humbling about it! What Era should i model! Im thinking modern! But im torn Between that and 1940s, and what region! I lived in colorado when I was a child from the age of 9 to 12 and I loved the Rio Grande! But Im a true southerner at heart and enjoy watching local freight movments of Norfolk southern and CSX, What to do, what to do, lol any sugestions! and Heck what would You Guys Like TO SEE! <br /> <br />and another thing is there some thing I need to know about snow! why don't more people model it? <br /> <br />Thanks Guys
