Small Layout Design and Modification 3 x 6 Foot Layout - TB members

This thread is in the Layout Design Forum and covers the development of a track plan. It begins with a standard Atlas N-501 2.5 by 6 foot layout and modifies it for better operation and train running. The thread is very long and the design goes through many changes, but it is a good example of how any small layout can be made to fit your own plans and ideas. This is a good thread to read when you have time.
