Well, with all our other ongoing projects, like Vigdis' D&RGW H0n3 layout and my own NSB H0 layout, plus our garden railway outside, we certainly don't need a fourth layout and yet another gauge to keep our hands full, but I find narrow gauge quite charming and wanted a small setup I could play with in the living room. And just to top it off, Vigdis has now begun to express some interest in N scale..! 
Anyway, I got a feedback from Duncan at Tam Valley yesterday, saying that their frog juicers only work on DCC, and because this layout will be plain DC I've made some small changes to the track plan and removed the crossing. There are probably other frog juicers out there that work fine on DC, or I could just use a DPDT switch and control the frog polarity through the crossing manually, but I think the new track plan is an improvement over the old one.
