Don't know how to vote but number two would be the closest to what I did. Graph paper, pencil, electric eraser, and compass, no template. I made about 10 completely different designs of the benchwork and mainline only, nothing else, until I was happy with the looks of what I had achieved. <br /> <br />Once I had the mainline and benchwork done, I planned in "sections"; in theory the layout still isn't totally planned. I have the benchwork up (2 decks) and all my backdrop in, and only 1/3 of the track in. I am planning the rest as I go. <br /> <br />Usually I find a bit of a plan I like in MR or other source and incorporate that small "bit" into what I am doing. So its sort of planning by sections.
