Yeah, changed my mind again, but this time I am locked into bench work that is 5' x 12' so I have to build my railroad on those dimensions.
Currently while I am planning I cannot decide on if I should worry about elevation or not. One of my requirements for my railroad is I want two trains that can run all the time with no user intervention if needed. Then I want a space for switching. Seems if I'm going up and down grades I would be limited on meeting these requirements especially if I want to keep my other requirement of nothing smaller then a 24" radius.
I've been looking at 4x8 track plans that I would then expand to fill the 5'x12' space. Maybe I'm just not creative enough with my track planning? I keep getting stuck on track planning and I'm getting very frustrated.
