HO Freelance Shelf / Switching Layout
#41
Mike Kieran Wrote:getloose,

I'm loving the layout. I was toying with the measurements. I have an idea on how to get rid of the switch back. If you widen the layout to 18 inches, you have a switching lead of 27.7 inches. That should be enough for an engine and 2 cars on an 18 inch radius curve. I used Atlas Snap Track and 18 inch radius switches, but you get the general idea.

Mike,

I really like this design as well. I could even go as wide as 24" with a max length of 6.5 ft. Do you think one could fit a turntable into that "empty" area as well as some track going out to the TT -- or would that make the layout too complicated & busy?

Thanks.
Rob
