Dear Model Railroaderers, I'm ready to build and have a few questions on the 4x8 track plan in the July 2003 MR issue. I apologize for not having a link to the track plan but it's a 4x8 divided longways by a backdrop w/a 3 track yard and 3 industrial spurs on the north side of the backdrop and a grain siding w/spurs on the south side of the backdrop. Some questions: 1. Where would you recommend installing a control panel on or around the layout for the power pack(s) and turnout switches? Would you recommend manual turnout switches or under the table switch machines or what? 2. Would you recommend block divisions or one loco only operation (so no insulated rail joiners, blocks, etc)? Thank you, Dan
