Track layout size
« on: November 29, 2017, 03:09:43 pm »
I'm put an O gauge under my Christmas tree and was wondering if it is possible for a layout to fit within a 3.5 x 5 foot area using the FasTrack. The area dimension is the size I'm looking for. A newbie so I don't know much about figuring it out.
Thanks for any help.

The minimum radius of FasTrack is 36 inches, so you would just get a small oval in the space you have.
You would need 8-curved and 4-straights.
