Carl,
Thanks for the compliment on the last layout. I think I posted more photos of it here when it was more finished. I move about every two years so it is difficult to build completely finished layouts in that short timespan.
I like the idea of a separated elevated line for the SnapTrack. I am happy to keep both systems separate but I was thinking I could join them since I have a SnapTrack to Lionel tubular section and a FasTrack to tubular section, and some tubular laying around. However, I can keep them separate and use those two switches to build sidings.
With that being said, this idea of using the walls intrigues me. As previously mentioned, I did think of first using an around-the-walls style, but I did not want to consume the entire room. Are the circle areas use to represent the size used in those corners?
Ken,
Thanks for the reply. I always enjoy your creations. I agree that we should use the largest diameter curve possible as the trains will definitely look better, but I do not want to purchase more track at this time. I will not use FasTrack or SnapTrack when I finally build a permanent layout and want to keep the cost of his temporary layout minimal. Also, SnapTrack is limited these days.
Joe
