I was fooling around with SCARM earlier, looking at a 16x6 design (roughly what I would have if I put my seven 6 x 2.25 tables together). If I wanted to run 3 trains independently, or 1 or 2 trains with the possibility of switching between tracks, have I placed the 1.375 block sections in the correct places? Any 10 inch straight can be replaced with four 1.375 and one 4.5 inch section, so additional blocks can be placed to park trains, though I have never used power switches for blocked sections before so am trying not to make it too complicated. Have done a couple with spurs as well. Still deciding whether to go a U shaped layout or not. Criticisms, improvements and advice always welcome.
