    Help with my first layout

    Hi, I'd recommend building a 3-D cardboard model of the layout. I got the idea from Dave Frary and it really helped me a lot. You might try several. They're sorta fun to build. http://www.trainweb.org/silversanjuan/page2.html Have fun,

    Pink foam insulation board for layout base

    Great stuff! White glue works fine for attaching roadbed and track to foam. (NEVER use white beaded foam...personal opinion, of course.:)) Very nice work.

    Whatcha using for planning?

    Hi, I used the free Atlas software (RightTrack?) and printed scale plans and cut them out to make a 3-D scale model of the layout (ala Dave Frarie). The model let me find several "bugs" before actually starting the layout. Also it was a fun "finally getting started on the layout"...
