Hi,
Firstly, I like to say what a great idea (thanks Jack) to have a Track Plans thread. Track Plans are such a great source of inspiration.
As I'm gradually getting to grips with Anyrail (thanks Talltim), I've started to put together some plans.
Thought I might as well add my current layout CSX Palmetto Spur, which has been well documented on RMWeb.
Next, I'm currently at the early stages of planning a new layout and looking for something a bit different, I found a small CSX branch
off the Amtrak main line at Deland,FL about 30 miles north of Orlando. The branch serves a facility which receives plastic pellets in
covered hoppers. Here's a pic
I'm planning to use Walthers 'Magic Pan Bakeries' as the basis of the plastics facility, as the kit includes 2 sets of hopper unloading pipes
Also, in order for the plan to be different from Palmetto, I've included a run-around and a trailing spur serving a Food Processor.
Like Palmetto the plan is 9ft x 15ins, using Peco Code 100 with medium radius turnouts. I've still got to do lots more research etc, so
it's unlikely that this project will commence until 2012
regards,
Mal
