I am planning at least a 30" radius curves with two full loops out into the room ("G" style). I am going to be running full size passenger cars so having a large radius is very important.
If I use 4" of clearance from track center to edge this results in 68" wide loops. I would like to have it a little less but don't want operational or appearance problems. I am planning on having some sort of "fall-off" protection (plex or masonite) around the edge.
For HO Scale what is the recommended and minimum distance from track center to an open edge of the layout? To a wall?
