New track plan # 2
#65
Ok, here I go again. I took Galen's ( Ocalicreek ) idea and came up with this. All curves are 22 or greater, turnouts are #6, and the grades are 1.2 on the small curve and 3.3 on the larger curve. The interchange/staging and island are at 5 inches above the table, the left area is at four inches, and then the right industrial area drops down to 0 inches so that it passes underneath the track coming from staging. I can raise the right industrial area an inch to ease the grade if needed. Or drop the left area. The right area needs something but I can not decide what. I have thought about a stock yard and slaughter house, but the slaughter house would have to be scratch built. Can not find a good kit. Maybe a scrap yard loading a barge, that would add some traffic to the interchange/staging. I also thought about a car float, but that doesn't really interest me, since there are none in this area. Anybody have any ideas?
Any ideas or criticism are welcome as always.
