Hi everybody,
I have a question, as some of you might have read in the "layout progress & engine pics" (by UP SD40-2) and my "current layout" threads, I am going to make 1 or 2 modules (both 6' x 2'). Now I no that I am going to have to have at least #6 swiches branching off the mainlines, but can I go with #4's in the sidings?
I want to run big engines like Dash 8-40CW, SD70, SD90 and so on. I figured out the track plan for the module, it is going to be kinda like doctorwaynes GERN Industries complex. Mine will have a mainline on the edge.
Here's a picture from photoshop I just drew up of what im talking about:
