MTH Realtrax Figure 8 layout using O-72 curves | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Would anyone be able to help me with the specific pieces needed to make a basic figure 8 layout using O-72 curves? This would be using MTH Realtrax. I can't seem to find how many of what lengths of straights I need and if the curve need some straights added to make everything match... This will be on carpet surround by a separate O-82 loop.

Thanks, appreciate the help.

I forgot to mention, it won't use the X. It will rise and pass over the bottom track using risers.

Thanks.

The blue tracks are at 0", the green track is at 6" and the purple tracks are 3% grades going up/down.
