I wanted to share a quick snapshot of my journey through O scale. I got back into O scale about 5 years ago after doing HO as a teen and with my sons. I really loved the detail, smoke and sound and presence of the new O scale offerings and have been collecting roads that served Wash Union station as that is where I travel on trains. Even today as I make my why to train 90 headed north to Union Station from NC.
But along that path I did pause to figure out why I was into the hobby again. I figured out it was really the history. And that helps to explain why I tend to focus now on accurate representations of models and what brought me to two rail scale just recently. I just got a couple stocks of micro engineering weathered track and a small stable of Sunset and Max Gray two rail engines as well as some GGD undecorated heavyweights and penssy commuter cars. I will be building a line of two rail above my current three rail loops. And ultimately moving the layout in about 3-4 years as we have a 1&1/2 long garage loft for my retirement layout that is about built out (just had reclaimed 1885 tongue and groove installed in the floor from another demo we did but that is a different web site!).
Question being, what track planning software do you all find easiest to use for two rail? I have One Track and it has lots of libraries of three rail track and switches. But is there something that you all find easy to learn and use that would help with my current "high line" two rail double and single track addition and ultimately a multilevel two rail for the loft under construction?
We are about at the station (Wilson on the former ACL double track line). Good day to ride a train!
Thanks and have an awesome weekend!
