I'm no pro at track planning, but an indication of the size of the grid would be helpful! If the lines are a 6" intervals and the room is 13'-6" by 15'-0" (plus the indicated 3'-0" by 1'-6" intermodal area) it looks like a decent plan. How about minimum radius for curves and turnout frog numbers? Are they really two duck-unders -- have you considered alternatives ("lift-outs," "swing-aways," or like "e-Paw" is doing elswhere on this Forum, and I have drawn in on my plan, "Roll-aways?"
Switching-wise, the potential looks pretty good! It looks like it might be fun to operate!
Oh ... and
to Big Blue! I think you'll like it here! I came over as a result of an invite from a member here and rarely visit there anymore ... only when I 've read everything new here and don't want to go to bed yet!
