This video is the first in a series discussing my planning process for designing the track plan for a small, 36" x 80", N-Scale layout. (Correrction: in the video I talk about making a 30" x 80" layout. Later I decided to make it larger into a 36" x 80" layout in order to get it big enough to include everything I wanted.)
The series is aimed at a beginner model railroader, but there are a lot of hints for those with more experience. In this session, I will discuss how I used the Atlas Track Planning software (free) to plan the layout.
I have finished much of my previous layout, the Scenic Ridge RR built with a kit from Woodland Scenics.
Here is an outline of my video series on the Scenic Ridge (subject to change as I go along)
