Hi All

I've now done the basic track planning. The main track in the diagram below is shown as straight. When the track is laid it will be curved, because it was curved on the prototype.

I am current planning to lay the track on thin foam board both for sound insulation and to allow the final track track position to be adjusted to make the best possible use of the very limited area.

The track diagram below was drawn using Trax 3. The points have a radius of 190mm, but it is a tramway and not a railway and the largest locomotive was a small wheeled 0-6-0 and no passenger or freight vehicle on the tramway had a wheelbase of longer than 15'.

It should be noted, that the prototype had a coal siding and a separate general goods siding, but space consideration forced me to combine them into one!

The photograph below is the plastic box, into which the baseboard, fascia panel and supports will have to fit for transport.
