Hello,
Those of you that have operated on my railroad may have noticed problems with one of my turnouts in Rico yard. it in effect created the dreaded reverse curve situation entering the yard, and whle it worked most of the time I had issues with it. I had also decided to add some additional trackage to represent an engine house servicing area.
before going too far I printed out a couple of switch templates to see where they would go.
Sub roadbed in place, checking with the templates again.
and the finished trackwork
as part of this process I also doubled the size of the Durango storage tracks, needed for operation.
