<p> <font size="4"><i>Cough, cough , puff, wheeez!</i></font></p><p>Just when I was about to enter the diner, the whole thing started to move! 25 miles outa town? What a distance to run - for an old man like me!</p><p>Chloe, coffee and a traditional American breakfast, with all the works and bells/whistles, please n´thanks!</p><p>It was a fairly quite day yesterday - aside from the phone ringing constantly. Due to weather, nobody showed up, so Petra and I enjoyed a day just for ourselves. Christian is still in the midst of his exams, so he could not come, leaving a broken heart with his mother... [sigh] </p><p><b>Sam</b> - it´ll be my pleasure to draw the plan. I´ll be using Atlas code 83 track, min. radius of 18" for branch lines, spurs and 22 - 24" for the main line run. Turnouts #6 - if that´s OK with you. Just allow me a few days to complete it. </p><p>It is again sn*wing outside - and no end in sight!</p><p>Have a good day, you all! </p><p>Edit:</p><p>I already played with Sam´s track plan and here it is:</p><p><img src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv185/SirMadig/TrainmanSamsLayout.jpg?t=1266141722" mce_src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv185/SirMadig/TrainmanSamsLayout.jpg?t=1266141722" width="484" height="484"><br></p><p><b>Sam</b> - PM me your e-mail address, so I can send you the RTS file! </p><p>2nd edit:</p><p>I have been playing with Iain Rice´s Roque Bluffs track plan and found out, that using Atlas Code 83 track with #4 turnouts is a near match to his handlaid track. I just laid my Atlas conversion over his graphics - looks good to me (maybe a new idea for me as well?)</p><p>Well, here it is:</p><p><img src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv185/SirMadig/RoqueBluffsHOAtlas83.jpg?t=1266147723" mce_src="http://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv185/SirMadig/RoqueBluffsHOAtlas83.jpg?t=1266147723" width="967" height="485"> </p>
