Hi! Im working on my first layout. Afther a lot of dreaming... now Im planing a short line layout.

The space I have is a 12 x 6 ft room with no door.

I would like to ask for your opinions about the projected layout (what problems could I have with it or how to improve it).
I will make it with Atlas code 100 track, 22 and 18 radious turns, NCE Powercab control. For the moment with no signaling o motorized turnouts.

This is the design:
(the missing tracks is because I'm working with anyrail demo... only 50 tracks pieces can be used)

Why did you connect the industry track coming off by merchant row back into the mainline on the right? I would have made that into more industries.
 
Hi Mike, I am not even close to an expert in layout planning, but looking at your plan, you have essentially a double track around the room layout plan.
Is that what you want to do? Just asking.....

Hi, Yes, I want a layout where I can run at least one train while Im working on switching another.
As I will not use automated signaling for now; I choose two lines to avoid crashes.
