A Simple Space Saver Layout for Tubular Track
« on: October 09, 2014, 09:11:48 pm »
An acquaintance sent me this simple space saver track plan.
It has a footprint that measures 36" x 68" & it is laid out on a 4' x 4' space (1/2 sheet of plywood).
It uses 4 - O27 switches, and a mixture of curves & straights, giving an  oval, two reversing loops and 2 side tracks.



Happy Rails!
Dave
