QUOTE: Originally posted by zigg72md If the reverse loops become too much my plan is to eliminate the red track and the connection on the lower left corner of the yard. If I do this will I eliminate all reverse loops?

QUOTE: Originally posted by skiloff I agree with wickman. You have a lot of space that could be utilized in dozens of ways. Play with the design over and over again. Get creative and try changing everything around, maybe a shelf layout with larger sections around for looping. I would encourage you to get XtrkCad or something and just start throwing track down and seeing what you come up with.
