The Trackplan
The trackplan is based upon Jack Trollopes 'Box Street Yard', which I found on Carl Arendt Micro Layouts website. Like his plan, to keep the layout as small as possible, a sector plate is utilized as both the fiddle yard, and also the 'switch' at the end of the run-round loop. However, I have used large radius points, and also added a short siding to serve the power stations. The main tracks have also been set at an angle to the front of the layout. In fact the only sections of straight track parallel to the front of the layout are the short section by Jim's Printing and at the front of the Mason's Manufacturing building.
