Hello all,

So I have a 5.5'x11' L shaped layout. But I'm looking to add an approximately 5.5' x 5x5' square to the bottom end as you will see in the drawings. (It's actually 68" by about 70" long). The first picture is the current layout. The second shows a horizontal line which tells you where the current layout ends, and below that is the planned expansion. The square in the middle is open space as an access point. I currently have homes on the left side of the current layout, and buildings along the right side (the passing siding is in the area of the current passenger station).

I have access points in the rest of the layout already, they're just not drawn into the AnyRail drawing. And disregard any poorly drawn curves, especially on the left side. My track is Gargraves. The outer loop is O54 in reality and the inner is O42.

Am I making good use of the expansion space? There will eventually be a third loop that's elevated. But my main concern right now is the ground level.

Thank you all for your thoughts and advise!

 

Matt

Great expansion you have planned. I just don't quite understand the track that cuts accross the corner of the benchwork? Why not follow the curve to the right as an inside curve? Nick 

Hello! Thanks for the reply! That track has a bridge running from the one side of the layout to the right side. I'm not good enough with AnyRail to draw that in on there.
