The best of the best layout design handbook

Reviewed in the United States on July 4, 2013

This is my #1 book to have with me when I start designing any railroad, from Z gauge to my latest 1:29 scale monster, dual gauge, occupying my old tennis court. It keeps reminding me of easements to curves, to proper track spacing for yards, bridge placements, crossings, turnout ladders and always avoiding generating too many straight line railroad plots. Better to have sweeping curves, making for interesting views than to make a plain Jane, boring, track plan. Though there are parts of Nevada that have 30 miles of straight line roadbed. Go Figure !!!
