Help !

I saw, a while back on line, a description of a return loop. It showed how the guy had made the base board etc and I'm sure dimensions. I was under the impression that he used it as an extension to a modual so he could run trains, whilst still building the rest of the layout. If anyone can pass me the link to said page I would be grateful. I have been through the RMWeb looking but cannot see it anywhere, it may of been elsewhere.(This is a problem when the computer crashes and I lost all my favourites).  It was if I remember last year and the word Loolypop was mentioned. Cheers Col
