I hate my layout

[joefryfry]

Time spent on very careful track laying is time very well spent!

The biggest mistake many beginning/inexperienced model railroaders make in their impatience to see trains run is to rush through the track laying process. That's like throwing a bunch of concret blocks in a shallow trench and calling it a foundation on which to build a house. You'll continually have major problems with that house for as long as it continues to stand.

The same is true for a model railroad.

So says the Voice of Experience!

I have done that before. I've also laid some pretty good track. I think the case here is the switch to N. You wouldn't think it wouldn't be that much different than HO, but I was surprised how much it was. I'm chalking this all up to a learning experience.

Also, I thought I had this track down pretty good, but things seemed to have "moved" over time.
