I would like to find out more information on this track design. I really like the layout. I want to make it for ho scale but need to know the turn radius. And amount of track need. Any information would be most helpful, thanks for time image

Here's the closest I could come using Bachman EZ track on a 4x8 tabletop in SCARM. The SCARM file is attached so you can install SCARM (free) and use it to make changes. I also included a parts list so you could see what tracks were used. There are 3 places I didn't take time to join completely and I don't know how much give there will be in whatever track you use. Hope this helps.

Also remember that in HO, you are talking about 2 rail, so reversing loops, like the inner loop on the left hand side, require special wiring to avoid a short. There is a lot of examples that can be found by searching Google for "reversing loop wiring". My understanding, was that DCC and DC  required slightly different wiring setups.
