Reply to "Building a new 104 sq ft Layout 3-Rail O-Scale Track"

Hello everyone,

I am attaching two new pictures of the Final design for my new Layout. @DOUBLEDAZ has made quite a few "tweaks" to the original design and the result, in my opinion, is the perfect Layout for the size and shape that I have to work with. After I changed the two 45 degree angles on the "inset" to 55 degrees, this gave Dave a whole lot more room to work the Outside Track and in turn a lot more room for the Inside Track. This combination allowed more interior room for scenery and that was one thing I was really wanting. There are more tracks in the rail yard and a cleaner access to each side track. The rail yard (on the right) is now joined directly to the Service Tracks (on the left) and this allows an Engine with up to 10 cars to work off both of the main lines (see photo 2). My general plan for the Layout will be to have three "sections", a) will be the rail yard and some associated businesses, b) the small country town in the center, and c) country side with the two service tracks servicing manufacturing, oil field, mining or similar style of companies.

Thanks to everyone who has taken the time to help by sharing information and suggestions and a special thanks to Dave for all the time and effort he has spent working we me on this project. I will post up dates as soon as I get started on the construction.tom 2019-12-19-1tom 2019-12-19-2
