Track plan in work. #6 turnouts, 24" min radius. 1 square = 1ft.
Freelance model of Katy RR from Taylor Tx staging, thru Smithville and terminus at La Grange Tx staging.
Having fun now running simulations.
Should have deck finished and track laying started in 3 weeks
No track plan picture shows. Keep trying.
It shows now.

Looks good! Please post pics of your progress!
I’m still not seeing it - two different computers. Just a little box where the photo is apparently supposed to show. If I click on the box there, it says “site cannot be reached.”
Hmm, works for me, two different computers on two different networks. It appeared at home, and it appears now at work. Shows up in the message and in larger form when clicked. It’s just one of IMGBB’s URLs, nothing odd.

Works for my laptop & phone
Still no joy, back on a different computer. Where I used to work, certain hosts were blocked so some hosts would work and others not, but here, I didn’t think that was the case.
Just checked my smart phone - nope, nada, just a box.
If you click the box, what URL does it take you to? Is it this:

As I recall it was a BMP. I can also see it both computer and phone.
If you’re looking for feedback (I’m assuming you are), I’ll give my opinions, though you have the right to not listen.
I think you could gain some more mainline run and maybe even more switching if you make the staging yard a double ended yard and move it to opposite Smithville. A double ended staging yard will make better use of space and allow for continuous run. It will also free space on the two sides of the layout (where the staging yards are right now) for scenery, and maybe a few more industrie if you want.
Just a recomendation, I’m sure there is a reason you have it how you do.
Firewall or network security settings. I can’t ever see photos on this site with my work computer. No problems with the home computer or phone.
I can see it using Chrome. Most times, on other thread, I can also get an image when I click on the little box that Rio talks about.
So Tom, are the yard and staging tracks on each end removable for using the door? Like, maybe they fold inward against the Smithville area?
At least the yard in front of the door?
Just wondering.
Mike.
Alledgedly. Normally I don’t have any issues seeing photo’s posted in topics on train forums.
On this particular topic:
The webpage at https://i.ibb.co/PNtwP1x/Palomino-TSL.png might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address.
I can see his original post, and see it on Randy’s link.
See if this works:
Mike.
Wonder if you have some firewall or AV software that is blocking it because the domain is .co not .com. Might consider it some sort of attempt to fake you out, but it’s legit in this case for sure.

Both are removable so i can get lawn equipment in
At home on Chrome now. Pics show up fine. At work on Chrome, they do not.
I’m all for staging, but I think there may be too much.
What is the plan.
Will a train come from one track, switch out cars, then head to an open staging track? Then a second train comes from a second staging track, switches cars, then heads to another open staging track? Then a third? And a fourth?
Why do you need four separate trains to stop and switch out cars in that small switching district?
Maybe there is a specific prototype that had four trains serving that town you are modeling, but if you’re freelancing, I think you could get by with less staging and more railroad. JMO.
Shows up at home on my phone. Must be this is the only host blocked at work. Lucky!
Another plan with multiple switchbacks. Where is the eraser?
