Let me second the recommendation about John Armstrong's books, particularly "Track Planning for Realistic Operation" It's got more useful, easy to understand information on grades, minimum radius curves, turnouts and other things which make the difference between fun and frustration than any other single source I've found. The areas in which I followed Mr. Armstrong's advice work fine. I'm changing the other areas, and they will be fine. But it would have been easier to do it right the first time.
