Reply to "Track Plan Design - Part Two"

Bob, don't make a decision just yet. I tried creating a Korber RH and discovered that the numbers that really matter are the distance from the edge of the TT to the rear wall. I've been trying to create a fairly accurate model of both RHs in SCARM, but that's been futile. The bottom line is the Altoona model is 41" from the edge (55" - 14") whereas the Korber is almost 46". That means the Korber model will be 5" further into the aisle, the same distance as the Altoona model would be with the 34" TT.  Sorry I misled you, but I forgot that the Korber is 4" deeper than the Altoona and the doorways are 1" wider meaning it has to be further from the TT. IMHO, the only combinations that work are the 28" or 30" TTs with the Altoona. If you go with the 30" it means each track from the coaling tower to the TT will need to be 1" shorter. It's getting late, so I'll try to post some photos tomorrow to show exactly what I mean.
