4' x 2' trackplan N scale - please give some

[Evan]

Hi,

I am going to be making a 4' x 2' N scale layout. (If you're read my other post, you'll realise this is only going to be for about a year, then it will get incorporated into something bigger.

As such, please send any interesting trackplans you have. I will initally be using a SD60 as loco, but will get a small switcher - probably a Life-like SW<something> within the next 3 months.

I would like to have a continious run, and also some switching (2 or 3 industries) and a yard. Doesn't have to be flat. In fact, I would like to have a tunnel and a bridge somewhere.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Evan

Look at this page:

Scroll down and look at Compact Track Plan:

There is lots of operations and switching to be had from this small plan.

One more good site

At the all-gauge rail page, there are several 2x3 and 2x4 N-scale plans.

Hi Evan,
Any 8x4 HO will be okay for your 4x2 in N-scale, as it happens, I have a 4x2 trackplan which I designed for N-scale as railroad to either watch the trains run by or as a switching layout.
