Reply to "14x24 Atlas-O Layout Plan. With 11x19 FasTrack Version. Short Video of Trains Running Added!"

  1.  I plan to start with table/modules 1,2,3 in the back. 
  2.  Beginning with Module-3, I will lay the double-track mainline and NS connecting line (on grade) working East. 
  3.  Then rough-in the lift-out Hillsdale module.
  4.  Then Module-4, and continue laying the mains and NS elevated.   Rough-in the Oak Point mountain on Module-4.
  5.  Then attach the shelf "S" for the elevated, and a shelf below it for the outside double-track main beneath the elevated NS.  The edge of the shelf follows the NS elevated.
  6.  Module-5 will be the only table on castors.  The idea is that with the lift-out bridges removed, I can slide out Module-5 to get access to Module-4 for detailing.  The double-track mains inside the mountain are sectional track and will hold their shape as I cut through them and install rail-joiners.  This could be tricky, to ensure that the tracks will line up perfectly when Module-5 slides back in, both for the mains and the elevated.   There will be four track joints joining Module-5.  But if I can make this work, it will nicely solve the access problem in an convenient way.  I plan to give it a try.
  7. Then modules 6 and 7 in that order.
