<p>[quote user="der5997"]Ulrich: That is looking so good! Maybe Petra will find it in her heart to cut you some slack on the house cleaning front! Whistling Once your avatar loco is running, do you plan to model the catenaries? If so, in how much detail?[/quote]</p> <p>John - she is actually quite generous, but I don´t want to overspend that credit [swg] My plans for the catenary - as detailed and prototypical as possible. Sommerfeldt of Germany makes the appropriate catenary for the Rhaetian Railway, which is reasonably priced for the amount of detail you´ll get. Of course, there are much more detailed catenary systems offered, but at $ 70 compared to $ 7 for a mast they are silghtly out of my budget ...</p> <p>I am just glad it´s such a small layout so I don´t need that much...</p> <p>Now I maybe risking you getting mad at me, but somehow I am not happy with your plan of the new layout. While Steven as already commented on the switchback access to the yard, i.e. time saver, my concern is that all of the track aside from the interchange and the return track is nicely lined up with the edges of the layout. If that´s intentional, I´ll keep my mouth shut, if not, my question would be how open are you towards other design ideas?</p>
