Here it is. There's a few things that need to be corrected, but it's close. The tracks on the outside are hidden to create "surround staging", a la, Mike Hammer. I don't have a bunch of industries, but I do have two interchanges and expect a bunch of through traffic to have to deal with while switching out a few cars going and coming from Rockville and other points beyond. I'm more of a scenery guy and like to see trains pass by.
AS you can see, I've tried about everything that Russ had mentioned, except instead of keeping it all one elevation I have the mainline leaving Vernon (notice double to single track bottleneck) rising and passing over the lead into the hidden staging. I didn't have to do it, but I was trying to hide the staging tracks, which will be covered with removable scenery chunks. I may regret it, but I'm leaving the design open-ended for changes. I designed it very conservatively knowing that there might be a slight chance of me making a mistake while designing it.sign1
The strange jog in the upper left corner is a swing-up bridge section that has a few tracks that need to align when dropped into place. The door needs to be reversed to swing out of the room, but I haven't filled out the proper evironmental impact statements yet to proceed. I may just wait until the inspector is out for the day and I can sneak in and suprise her.
Sorry about my lack of terrain mesh manipulating abilities. I use the program just enough to barely remember how to do certain things. wall1
I use 3rd Planit if you were wondering. Cool program, but it takes some hours of playing to get used to.
