Reply to "The first layout. Ideas needed for a 15 x 22 room"

SCARM Isn’t really an option for me as I use a Mac. I realize there are various 3rd party websites that provide semi-untested workarounds for windows programs on macs but I’d rather not purchase an item just for the “chance” of it working on my current laptop.



I have tried Railmodler off of the Apple Mac store and need to fiddle with it more before I’d purchase the full version.

I saw a post recommending SCARM and I tried downloading it to my iPad with no luck.  Probably not enough memory for it.  My laptop has been requisitioned by the boss for work.  I didn’t think to look in the App Store.

I built a 6x8 layout originally with a large oval and then a separate inner oval with a loop and a long dogleg.  With Santa slated to deliver a new engine for my son, I recently reworked the inner track.  I eliminated the loop and and I created 3 doglegs so we can have all 5 of his trains on the layout.  It’s in an 18x11 room in our basement so I made it tall enough to store barstools under it as well as room for storage.

Its not going to be the final layout as my son is still relatively young and he likes to have some flexibility.  We have acquired a few accessories too over the last two and a half years that haven’t been worked in yet.  I need to learn more about wiring to do that.  I would like to utilize one of these programs to maximize our space.  
Thanks for sharing!
