Suggestions Requested on Design

Dan, what brand track are you using? This was done using Ross. As you can see, it won't fit a 4' width unless you cut 2 switches. The main oval fits 12', but the overall length is 16', I have no idea how much space the coal ramp siding needs.

Sorry, forgot to mention that I am using Lionel "O" gauge tubular track.

Dave, by the way, how did you get the blue outline on the program.  I should mention that I am using the free version.

Ok, try these new files then.

The blue outline is the "baseboard", the green when viewed in 3D. I posted some instructions for how to add one in your other thread about using SCARM. Let me know if they helped.

Here's a quick alteration to a 4x8 I designed a while back. This was meant to be a display layout using tubular track and 022 switches. I just expanded it quickly to your 12' dimension.

I thought the layout could be spiffed up with another mainline oval and O72 crossovers. The mainline ovals have O54 easements on the end curves for a smoother flow. The 3010/3011 switches have about the same footprint as cut-down O22 switches that I like to use myself, but regular O22 switches could be substituted. I'm not familiar with the space and locating requirements for the accessories, so maybe someone else can contribute more information on that.

Dan, will your table have access on both sides? A long spur on the back side would be a good place for your additional accessories.
