Modular Layout with O-72/O-54 track plan in a 13 x 15 foot space

 

Here is a modular layout track plan in a 13 x 15 foot space. It could set up in one half of a 2 car garage or a small room.  It is intended as a semi-permanent layout that could be easily expanded by adding more modules. This plan uses a combination of O-54 and O-72 RealTrax. The focal point is a WYE entrance to a small yard.  Suitable for passenger service or an intermodal yard. It is designed for continuous operation and includes a long passing siding. This layout will handle scale size passenger cars and diesel engines.

 

This layout is being constructed in modular form. The modules are multiples of 3 feet.  The largest module is 3 feet by 6 feet by 4 feet in height. Assembled using 1/4 inch lag bolts, washers and nuts. The 6 foot maximum length allows transportation in the back of an SUV if necessary.

 

A drawing showing a typical module is attached.

 

Construction uses a combination of 2 x4 and 1 x 4 lumber.
