M-J RailConnect Layout Progress Thread
#2
To be honest, the more i look at it, the more cluttered this layout looks. I know industrial parks can get packed, but i think you should figure out what buildings and things you want to use on your layout, and then plan the track plan around those, making sure not the crowd them so close that it couldn't operate realistically (such as truck docks that are too cramped for a truck to fit in).

Many of your spurs curve around and move in unusual ways, and some look like there are no rooms for structures or other equipment. I would loose more of those spurs, and create more room for your train's environment.


as far as track goes, Atlas track will always be more flexible and easy to modify than any other track. Kato uni-track is great, but you're stuck with rigid dimensions that don't always work out conveniently or efficiently.
