Feedback on preliminary track plan

Model Railroader Layouts and layout building

Howdy folks. I am new to the forums here. I will just buy you all a beer now to save a lot of trouble later :slight_smile:

I have a new house and a new space 6’ at one end 8’ at the other and 11’ feet long. I’ve started up an N scale track plan designed to support what looks like class 1 railroading with the Belt Railway of Chicago as my prototype - so this mainline I have designed is just intended to run 2 trains in opposite directions with the open to enter a yard at either and or to continue looping or enter a reversing loop to turn around. I will be adding all the industrial / chicago stuff after I get some feedback on my general mainline. All track is going to be atlas 80 with #6 turnouts as the norm and usually not less than 15 inch radius. So please, humor an old man and tell me what you think of this 2 track mainline with reversing loops:

Welcome Bolan. I need to check the “unread” post and threads more often.

Your picture didn’t come through.

Go to the General Disscusion forum, and read the instructions on how to post a picture.

You’ll need a third party host.

Many here will look forward to giving you feed back on your plan, once we can see it!

Mike.

A picture is worth a thousand words, as they say. No picture makes it nearly impossible for feedback.
