Well, daughter #2 actually took some stuff out of the attic yesterday ! I am still at least a year away from being able to finish off the attic as far as drywall and heat. But I have been busy working up track plans. This is the latest in a long line of plans I've made using Railmodeler. The area is 14' x 12'
I'm not that good with Railmodeler and as you can see, not that good with marking up a sketch. The ovals at the top mean nothing. The two straight red lines are where a 313 Bascule Bridge and a Marx Bascule Bridge will go. The red arrow is pointing to where a Lionel MPC era bascule bridge will go. The bottom right where there is a section of straight track connected to nothing indicates where a 350 Transfer Table will be placed. The shaded area indicates an 18" wide isle, with entry at the bottom of the picture. I plan to build the layout away from the walls so there will be access to all sides.
The curved track is O42 and O31. Most of the switch tracks are O22, with two O72 shown in about the center.
I plan to install most of my operating accessories. Culvert pair, Sawmill, Oil drum loader, Cattle coral, MTH coal tower, 397 coal loader, 362 barrel loader, 364 log loader, MTH log loader, and if I can fit them, a 164 log elevator, 97 coal loader, and more.
