I think the way to the judges' hearts will be to faithfully render a local, recognizable scene.
I think building a loop handcuffs you unnecessarily. I think the way to the judges' hearts will be to faithfully render a local, recognizable scene. As long as there's enough track to shift a couple of cars back and forth, it passes the "operational" litmus test.Lee
Possibly. It depends entirely on the judges. You really need to know what their preferences are and cater to them. Otherwise you may spend energy on aspects of the project (such as prototype fidelity) that may go unappreciated.
That's funny, because I just returned to post this--It's 18 x 30 inches, with 8-inch minimum radius, except for the switchback, which is 7.5 in.BTW, Dave, you can get around a freight car on the first layout--just loop around the whole mainline.
So David, I like this look...what size are the turnouts? 8" radius, I'm assuming bending flex track around to make the 8".?
