Thanks for the info!
Nice plan, nice size.
I worry that Annpere jct. may be a source of derailments- crossing on a curve. Those wheel flnges will find that gap.
Consider doing what Chuck Hitcock did, two mainline turnouts start the curve, with the straight ’ s crossing each other for the jct. in the corner Very effective.
Doodling trackplans on paper is always fun but far too often fails to seriously consider the possible trackwork problems involved. In your case, Craig, the cluster of switches in the upper left corner of your trackplan are problematical and will certainly require far more space on the layout than suggested. Locating suitably angled commercial track components for a couple of your crossings is also likely to prove difficult and you may end up with problems getting things to position out anything like they do on paper.
I’d definitely advise making paper templates of actual commerical switches and crossings and lay things out full-scale for fit before doing anything else. I’ve always found it useful to trace full scale plans on large, joined sheets of rosin paper (cheap building supply store item). Walthers Catalog includes scale images of their switches, etc., which you can have enlarged at a copy store or even on with your computer. Atlas, likewise, has a downloadable program using its track components for the same purpose.
