Great comments, much appreciated! The underground switch on the left will definitely have access by a portal on the top. I kept the above ground...
Thanks, appreciate the advice!
1 - which curve are you talking about? Is it the "Y" maybe in the bottom right on the blue track of the zoom-in pic? 2 - I wasn't debating the...

Very nice!
Thanks!! I like that top one as well and it'll likely be the next layout I try. I setup JMRI to run on the Raspberry Pi and when I get some...

What would be needed to use LocoNet aside from the USB adapter and the stationary decoders?
