@John E K posted:Back in 1994 I re-created a Lionel Display layout featured in the March 1993 issue of CTT. (On an aside, that was a 146 page issue...those were the days!) The layout story, written by the author and layout re-creator Ed Schwartz captured my imagination.
John, I am so glad someone made that layout and you did a fantastic job! As you, when I saw that plan in the CTT magazine, I think I was on an airplane and did not want to even consider other layouts.
Fast forward 27 years and I still have not forgotten that layout but I did actually "build" a new plan based on the Atlas Track Planning software. The one change I did make was to use 072 as a minimum, and could larger if needed. Well... it turns out that doing that the plan becomes enormous... way too large for my space.
After seeing your layout, I may try to redraw the plan but with 054 as a minimum and see if that works/fits.
If I can figure out to post I will.
Thanks again for sharing John, the video was nicely done as well!
