When to Start Over with your Layout?

Atlas does a great job of selling its products by publishing track plans that use, well, lots of their products. Many of them are from the beginning days of sectional track, when 18 inch radius was normal for a 4 by 8 board. You're not the only one sucked into thinking one of those Atlas plans was cool. They look great in the books. Like everyone else here says, though, you need to start over. Most of your materials can be salvaged and used again. Flextrack in HO is not hard to master, and you'll really enjoy curves of at least 24 inch minimum radius. Go for it. You learned a lot from this first layout!
