I could sure use some "eyes on", not hands on help with a layout. I'll buy lunch or dinner!! I'm pretty invested in O Gauge rolling stock and tracks. I have a several car lineup of Lionel Pullman Heavyweights, four of the Lionel NYC Streamliners, a GG1, a pair of Lionel 2344 New York Central F-3 Twin Diesels AA and a couple of obligatory O27 sets. Ideally, I'd like to run the heavyweights on an outside perimeter track, followed by the streamliners and finally an O27 set. I know I'll need O72 track on the outside. Oh yes - I'll have two 4'x8' boards tucked in a corner. Regretfully, that is my constraint. I'll have open access only on two sides. I know I'll have to make a trap door somewhere. Anyway, I digress. Is there anyone in Kansas City that can swing by and lend an eye? Greatly appreciate any insight. Ponz

I have a set of the Lionel Pullman Heavyweights, which require a wider radius.  I thought 072?  I also have a Lionel GG1.

Ideally, I'd like to run an outside track as close to the perimeter of the table as possible and another close to that.  Hopefully, that would enable me to run a much smaller setup inside both outer loops.  I imagine no switches as they would take up too much space.

I just ordered 20 lengths of Gargrange flexible track so I can utilize as much of this table as possible.

Thanks for your help!!

John
