MR Express - Biggest challenges in tracklaying

The biggest challenge for me is to get the technical aspect of how tracks and yards in general should work, then move the theoretical to the practical. I have made at least a hundred track plans in my mind for the space I have available, and what I am laying now only mildly resembles what went on in my brain. So I think the greatest difficulty is getting the experience so that a reasonable track plan can be had that reflects my givens and druthers. <br /> <br />Curves eat more than I realized. Trying to be true to a minimum mainline curve can be tricky and demanding. <br /> <br />So I guess for me the most demanding aspect of track laying is getting the experience.
