HP and Sackville Railroad


I am going to add a 1” straight between two 1/4s of the 24” radius curves, that will bump that outside track out to 24 1/2, step the track out 1/2 inch at the location and I think it will be negligible, anyone ever do that before?

Yes that is what I was suggesting a few posts ago. Add a straight to the outside curve, or subtract a straight from before entering the inside curve to "loosen" the distance between curves, and also exactly what I did on Resneu's plan to expand the distance between rails.
 
More progress

Good morning Iron Horseman,
Do you recall if this track plan configured properly; and what the radius of these tracks in the red box were ?

I was able to get to the LHS yesterday for some more flex and curves, I was then able to get my outer loop in. Not powered fully yet as my soldering onto rail joiners did not go as well as planned. Nice and warm here today, so then went for a nice drive along the east coast to Mahone Bay. What a perfect day! These pics were not taken by me, my wife has our camera right now out at her girlfriends.

I only took a picture looking out the Bay today, and yes when I got home, I was still chiseling ice out of the driveway from last week. Shade in front of the house. I had to grab a couple pics from the Mahone Bay tourism site. We always park in front of the churches and enjoyed our coffee and croissant enjoying the Sunshine and the view out the bay.
 
A little more progress this week, printing stacks, boats, etc….HMCS HAMMONDS PLAINS is starting to fit in place.
