I'm only using plastic on my own because it's my first serious layout. I will no doubt route my own track next


Sorry to butt in,


With a bit of planning you can get a fair amount of classic track onto an 8X4

Someone mention cattle grid -



OK I promise I`ll stop now.

Yours will be a great project, hopefully I`ll get a run on it sometime. I`m looking forward to the progress reports.

If you use brass or aly tube, put a solid rod inside the tube, it will rattle as the cars cross over it.

I do like this idea, I only used bamboo barbeque skewers for mine, cut to length and hot glued in place. The cars do make a bit of noise going over it but I do think a bit of experimentation with the above idea will pay dividends.
