I am new to all this I have been researching layouts to build in N Scale. Finding nothing that suited me I took the Mineral range layout from the Atlas book and modified it to fit my 4x12 design I wanted in SCARM. I want to use DCC and am studying it all. I could use some help though if some one could look over my layout and mark where I should put the reversers and other critical points like breaking into sections/blocks? Also will I need and how many extra booster stations?
I uploaded a jpg of the layout if someone could mark it up and upload it that would be awesome :)
I took the Mineral range and built it in Scarm then I split it and expanded it to fit 4x12. I then added an extra siding line on the far left section and a whole line that runs around a mountain then straight across the front sections where I want to put a coal mine operation for a long coal train to run through etc. I used atlas code 80 mostly flex track.
Thanks in advance for help
David
