thnaks for the tips. I had assumed a number of switches would stil be needed beyond the ones that I brought up. <br /> <br />I hadn't really though trains entering the two passign sidings/minlines at the top at the same time from different sides.... good point. So I thnk the only ones I'll consolidate will be <br /> <br />A-B <br />C-D <br /> <br />As for the double crossover, the Kato version we are using only requires a single switch for the whole thing (at first my 6 year old & I shuddererd at the double crossover, thinking it needed multiple switches, and how would we kwewp it straight). <br /> <br />So it looks like 8 switches for 10 turnouts (if you count the double crossover as a single turnout) <br /> <br />thanks again
