Reply to "Track Plan V1 - Little help from OGR Members"

Kevin,

Just to add my 2¢, and not insinuating that you do the same as I did, but just as another approach on how to unravel ideas for a track layout.

I also like the dog-bone and folded dog-bone layouts. For my present layout I wanted a double-main (Ø108" and Ø99") and reversing loops. Here is what I did to fit the space I had. Note that the 'pinched' section behind the stair well provided a perfect location for reversing loop turnouts as well as crossovers between the two mains:

Which eventually resulted in the following layout:

Good luck with your layout, and you surely are in the best place to get answers; and I don't mean mine by any stretch, but those of the guys, above.
