CTT Article on Train Station Designed Layout!
Posted by Kooljock1 on Wednesday, August 31, 2005 2:58 AM
Hey CTT folks! That is one terrific track-plan the folks at The Train Station in Mountain Lakes New Jersey put together!

Nice article!

Any way we can get a more detail track plan including curve radii and switch radii?

That's a whole lot of layout for 9' X 16', and I wouldn't mind re-creating it in my next house!

Hi Jon, II enjoy catching the tail end of your show at wkol.com - I thought the same thing about that plan - I was trying to puzzle it out from the pictures. They certainly fit a lot into that space.

CNW,

Thanks for listening. I wi***he computer didn't have to replace the commercial breaks the way it does, it sounds awful compared to the regular air signal.

I love the way that track plan has double reversing loops, up-grades, down-grades, etc. What I'd want to add is some kind of staging yard off to the side, or underneath. Probably off to the side though.
