QUOTE: Originally posted by selector Here is what I see: the two-rail shed at "3" should be set back on another length of rail. The car on the rightrail will barely squeeze past the car on the left due to the angle track coming off the turnout. This is give or take, but I would move the shed back 25 scale feet.
QUOTE: Originally posted by selector A double-slip switch would be a great piece of eyecandy, plus handy, just above that orange loco symbol at "Taylor".
QUOTE: Originally posted by selector The inner curve at lower left seems very tight at its apex. I haven't figured out what the radius is, but you could widen it nicely by bringing the apex back toward the facing aisle and rounding the curve more. Lots of empty space in there, anyway.

I am going to look at your idea. I don't like to have to back in and even worst do not want to use my hands. So that part of the plan will still be looked at. Good input.

QUOTE: Originally posted by selector Yes, left of the dco, but maybe to include the two upper tracks that are not mated to the dco. Just a thought. I think it would look bit**in'. I have not looked at the lower level...
QUOTE: Originally posted by selector Not much happening down below...is there? Not being snide, just making an observation. However, I think you will be very weary laying that big yard after a few hours. Do you really need all of it? Maybe, as a plan, it is perfect, but execute it in stages...add yard as you need to with the room you have already allowed.
