I have Decided... IT Begins!

[Anonymous]

Hi Everybody

I have Decided

I am going to go with a Point to Point for these reasons:

- It is realistic

-There is room for shunting

-Simpler because I am going to use Flex Track it will not have to be cut so
perfectly because it won't have to go directly anywhere!

-Does not have to be as wide as continous running layouts.

-I am alot more free in what track i buy and can make it more than a series of oval like tracks

-Easier to design

- Roadbed will be easier for the same reason as the Flex Track

-Trackplan can be changed

-Easily expandable


I was thinking i would do something like this trackplan...
If you go about halfway down the page you will find an L shaped layout
It is my favourite so far.

Well congratulations! Decision is good. Enjoy the construction process.

Still, indecision is the key to flexibility........

ok

I have made 1 change to the plan

What i will do is i will have a giant oval,probably about 2x8 and have all my point to point in the middle. That way at one end of the oval i can have mountains. The oval will have 2 mainlines.

Where do i go from here?

many thanks

for one thing the L shaped trackplan has no runaround track . unless you want to run around your loop each time you are switching cars you should put one in the switching area someplace.
