My layout plan.

[Ernest Lafleur]

Hi rail fans,
This my layout plan at the moment, it's the fifth layout that I have built sins I live here
in this house, and that 27 years already.
I can run in DC and in DCC, this is because only 7 of my +/_ 35 loco's have a decoder as of yet.
It is a freelance BNSF/SF/UP/SP and some CSX and Reo Grand.
I have a video of the mohavi sub, Witch is filmed in the Tehachapi mountains and runs from Bakersfeild to barstow, and if you look good and with a lot of imagination, whitch I have, you can see this in my layout, at least I see it that way and that's wat counts, right guys.:thumb:
The white lines is the upper section and the blue is the lower section.
More photo's will come as I progress.
Ernest.

Hi Jim,

That's right, the lower section is a staging yard with room for 10 to 15 wagonsand one loco. the drawing is not kompleetly to scale. I have a small camera to view that yard.

The overall size is 6meters x 5 meters (19ft x 16ft)
The tabeltop is 3ft from the floor
Min radius 26 inches
Wissels are Nr 5, 6 and some Nr 8
Gradents 2.5% and one is 3%
Track is code 100 from peco

I still have a lot of work to do, but I'll get there.
Ernest
