WOW!! MOONMAN, I CAN'T THANK YOU ENOUGH!!! THIS IS AWESOME!!
I went ahead and got the Atlas O-Scale Layout Book. It should arrive later this week. I have been using 1/2" OSB for my small layout I had. Should I use 3/4"? I only have one 4x8 piece.
I was going to use some Homosoate on top of the OSB. I've used that Foam-baord insulation sheathing (the pink stuff) before.. It was ok.
Yes.. I've got a lot to learn as far as wiring and installation... but that's the fun of it. Any recommendations on transformers? I was hoping one transformer would work for the inner loop, and I would buy another for the outer loop and possibly another for the rail yard. I'm sure the book will tell me.
Thanks again for the map on the tracks.. that's a HUGE help!! Especially since those switches are an arm and a leg to buy. I can add as I go. Especially in the rail yard.
