Southern Pacific Switching Layout

[FCIN]

Ed, Here is a version of the track-plan that Steinjr drew up, There are some things I would change about it, but it's a pretty nice plan.

That is a pretty interesting starting point. I'd sure add some length on the main tracks at the left side since you'll have 13ft 4in available instead of 10ft. Give you a little more breathing room for switching. I like the big city switching district look. Sort of reminds me of the MILW Kingsbury Branch. http://home.comcast.net/~skytop35/Kingsb...kplan.html I might have to play around with something along these lines myself.
