Hi Bill- I do NOT have a "definite" track plan quite as yet. Will advise when I get done 'engineering' the thing because I don't use that fancy software some of you do.

YES, there will be TRACTION on the layout besides other things. Both 3-rail and 2-rail

types.. I am designing a 3-rail // 2-rail interchange track where trains can meet up and exchange passengers with Sacramento Northern and Pacific Electric riders. It will be unusual maybe, but allows me to re-live my days at EBMES in Oakland, CA so many years ago. Stay tuned --you won't believe what's coming in the near future !
