@SteveH posted:John,
This looks good. Here are my observations/suggestions about this design:
1) You would probably need a total of 4 Fastrack Transition pieces in between the Gargraves switches and the Fastrack track on the outer loop.
I have four of these, but they are 10". Can I cut them in half?

2) If using the the GG #801 track mating pins, you wouldn't don't need FasTrack transition pieces at the top inner loop where the GG switches connect to the Menards tubular track.
You are referring to the two 5" pieces colored in Red - right?
I have a 30" Menards tubular track piece at home. Would it be better to use the 24.8" Gargraves cut piece as shown at the top or substitute the 30" Menards piece?
3) On the lower spur, there are two LH O54 switches superimposed, one over top of the other, which would make the parts list count one over what's needed.
I'll delete that, thanks
Also, I believe I have to electrically connect the middle rail sections of the Gargraves track when i get it. I can solder a jumper wire or use the one's Gargraves sells that goes into the ends.
Thanks for the help,
John
