10x8 layouts?

In my link below, there are photos of our now defunct 10' x 6.5' layout that had a double track mainline for two train running. It also had a few sidings for some simple switching action.

Note that you'll have to copy and paste the ENTIRE link into your browser window as only a small portion of it is an active, underlined hyperlink.

Thanks I'll check it out

Great layout in a small space!

Absolutley wonderful!!

Very nice graz!  I truly appreciate your attention to detail!

Good luck with your new 8x10 layout. Be sure to post progress pictures as you work your way to completion.

Graz, That was a nice layout. Could you give me the track curve numbers/radius info for the green and red loops? Thanks

I'm glad you guys had a chance to look at the photos. We dismantled the layout few years ago as it had been roughed up in a couple of moves and didn't really fit the free space in our latest house. 

The track was gargraves sectional. The inner loop was 031 curves and the outer was 042. The switches were all Gargraves as well. I don't recall the size but I would recommend Ross if doing it over as the reliability of my switches was spotty at best.

We've been running Fastrack on the floor along with a Christmas layout but will get back to a scale / realistic layout direction in the near future. Just need to get the basement finished before making the jump.

Wow!!! that is one sharp looking Layout Graz!!

Perhaps a U shape would work. There is a small MIANNE benchwork setup for sale in the For Sale forum in a U shape.

I visited the layout in person at graze's home in hopes of purchasing it. Sadly, moving it to Ohio would have cost too much. It really was one of the nicest layouts I've seen for a small space. The scenery was just gorgeous and detail amazing.

Hope you get a chance to build another one like it.

Best wishes!
