[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Hawks05 huh? sorry. i'm a newbie so i have no clue what you just said. i'm not trying to recreate thing like in realife. this is just to build up skill. i've never had a model railroad set up in my life. if i did it was maybe for a night. so i have no clue what any of the MR lingo is. hopefully my layout will be a 4 foot by 8 foot layout. [/quote]Hi, to answer your question without hype, in HO a 4X8 could have as many as three mains, but no more due to clearance between tracks and minium radius on the inner curve. In N I don't know.
