@Ken-Oscale posted:Hi Allegheny, I have three versions I am working with in this thread, jumping between them as ideas occur. That is confusing, I am sure. So the O54/O63 uses the smaller diam. curves, whereas the O72/O81 uses the wider curves.
I may try the O54/O63 as an article for submission to OGR, its smaller size MAY work for the magazine, where the larger version probably will not fit. So I have put a bit more effort into the O54/O63 version, which was my original start. I got into the O72/O81 version following suggestions, and it turned out to be interesting. I may do the S-gauge version for OGR as something unique and small size.

Hello Ken,
Thank you for your reply.
Now I understand just what is going on within this thread. Somewhere along the way I must have missed an earlier discussion or two that would have explained it all. Again you have an interesting layout design where in which you tie two reversing loops together thereby adding additional operational routes.
The only suggestion I have for the 072/081 curve design, is to possibly add a switch one or two switches going from the outside rail to the inner one one on either side of you lift out bridge that ties the two loops together.
Given your recent updates, could you also post an updated 3D version for the 072/081 curve design as it would help me to better conceptualize the design changes?
Thanks!
