Larry thanks for your input. I am thinking of powering with a CW 80. In the yard section of the layout, would I run drops to each of the three branches. For the rest of the layout, I was thinking a drop for each loop and using the 3 foot rule on the mainline. Any special detail for the 2 reversing loops?
