I threw out my previous layout as it became obvious that it wasn't going to work as I wanted. This is a layout I found in a book and then heavily modified.
This is an N scale layout with Atlas code 80 tracks. The exterior dimensions are 3'x2'. This is going to be my central module, Hence the 6 different rails hitting the edges of the board and the switchyards. Haven't decided about terrain, landscape or industry yet, but with all those spurs, I should have some options.
Feel free to blast away. I know the 9 3/4" turns are a bit tight, but I'm modeling the late 19th century early 20th, so the trains should be short enough for that. Plus, I don't exactly have much room.
