REV 1 Scraped Track Plan Ready to FOR FLAMES

well as long as this stays true and you don’t gain weight [:)] the 24" isles should be fine .

Chip, the secret is to get a step stool and get “taller”. It isn’t difficult, I do it all the time.

Started planning with 48" waist now 42" thought I had to fit in 18" aisle, “LOL”

You say your layout has 5 levels ??? [%-)] From the way you present your plans, it is very difficult to see what tracks are on what levels. When I look at it, it looks like everything is on one level. To make it easier to see the separate levels, I suggest you draw each level on a separate page.

I’m guessing that those blue circles with crosses in them are pot-lights in your ceiling. If that is what they are, and they have not yet been installed, I would suggest you plan to put your lights above the layout. That way you light the trains and not the aisles. Also, you’ll probablymay need more of them in order to get more even lighting coverage.

If you’re still at the point where you haven’t made any lighting commitments, I offer the following advice : A set of small spotlights on a ceiling-mounted track system would offer you more options and flexibility for lighting (especially if put on dimmer controls). You can move them around, and direct the light to best illuminate your layout.

Lighting is:
Low voltage ROPE all around the underside of the valance. Low voltage tracks and Halogen for operations and low voltage track for mood lights. The rope is also all around the upper valance, gives a very gentle sunrise type of lighting. Heck I got 125 ft of it so I am usinf it.
