Grantham Coaling Plant 2mmFS - Track plan.

Good evening,

 

I have put together a track plan today which is fairly close to the prototype. I want to keep it as simple as possible as this will be my test bed for building easitrac turnouts, in readiness for the 7 turnouts that I need to build for my Par layout. The layout will be 120cm long across two 60cm boards. 40cm to one end will be allocated for the fiddle yard which will be very simplified as it will only need to hold locos and some coal wagons which will be shunted onto the layout to the coaling plant hopper. The coaling stage will be on the scenic break and will be one of the three buildings that I will produce, the coaling tower being the centre piece. I still need to research the water tower a bit more and to date, have only found one distant shot, so if anyone has any photos of this structure, it will be greatly appreciated.

 

Here is the plan.

As always, any comments are most welcome.

 

Best regards,

I totally agree Pete, less is more. To be honest I would like the focus to be on the structures more than the track plan so I thought simple trackplan so I can spend more time scratch building.
