Templates

Hello, your post is only a few away from what you are looking for.  There is a post called "Lionel Dealer Display Layouts, Factory Layouts and Postwar Layouts"I am not sure there are any 10 x 20 specific layouts, but you will find many examples. In the link some people have converted them to Fastrack, but you can still see the original track layouts.

Have Fun.

Thank you Mike.  What I am actually looking for is a tool where I can design a layout.  I thougth I'd try my hand at designing one myself before I recreated one that had already been done

I have/had exactly what you are looking for. I used it on occasion, but never really liked it. once the computer track programs came out, i put it away somewhere, never to be used again. I haven't seen them for sale aywhere, either.

       The computer programs are just so much better to use--- there are at least 4 programs i've used/tried in the past: Atlas's Right Track software(no longer available), Winrail (the parent of Right Track), Xtrak Cad, Anyrail, and the one I use now: RR-Track. For me, it's the best program out there. 

      Each program has it's supporters and detractors. you would have to read up on them, try the free versions(if they exist-- like Anyrail's), and see which one you like.

I just did a google search for the track template-- it's been discontinued, and is no longer available for purchase.

guess if one of us has one that is not "lost in space" they can send it to you if you insist on going old tech.

hope this helps--

Great-  I d/loaded the "AnyRail" program and was up and running in no time.  I really apppreciate your help, Bill.  The only old tech I am using is the equipment itself.  No issue with the planning portion.  The layout is a tribute to my dad, so I am using what he had a as a kid.

Glad to see you up and running! I don't have my dad's lionel equipment-- my sister does. I did however manage to find most of what we grew up with in the secondary marketplace. So I have 2 layouts-- one a Lionel PW homage to my dad, the other is all modern equipment--  mostly MTH engines androlling stock. No modern Lionel engines, just rolling stock. enjoy the hobby!
