Wondering if anyone has seen, built or knows of a track plan or design that incorporates a switching puzzle (even a simple one) in a layout of 8-9 feet BY 12-14 feet.  I'll be using one of Mianne Benchwork's AR designs (with either 30" or 36" long sides).  These "Around the Room" benchwork designs have a center opening for access  (yes, crawl under to reach it).  I'm putting it in a larger room so I will have excelent outside access to one long and one short side and then some very limited (squeezable) access to the other long and short sides.

Also, one other question since this post has the Mianne picture, I'd like to incorporate a reversing loop.  I assume this means I have to cross the open center area somewhere.  How could I fit such a loop and obstruct as little as possible of the center open access area?

A water-damaged basement meant that I had to take apart a larger Mianne benchwork plan but I have sufficient parts and pieces to re-assemble in the new form.  I use Realtrax and have many switches, mostly O-72 with a couple O-54 and O-42.

Many thanks!
