Crazy Switch Happy Layout - Super - 09-01-2017

Here is a crazy switch happy Layout. How could they possibly keep up with the trains and which loop they are on before any crashes? When my Grandson and I were building our first big Layouts using switches we would have a ball running around the whole basement trying to prevent collisions by operating the switches. With this huge Layout one would get a real workout for sure.

Wow.. that is pretty cool. I too seem to always have all sorts of collisions when using too many switches..Cool

That looks so cool and so interesting. I wouldn't care about the collisions. It just looks so cool

That is flipping awesome! I think these folks are doing right and really putting the "play" in Plarail, albeit to a crazy level. While I enjoy and appreciate scale model railroading, this is a good example of why I love Plarail/Trackmaster so much. There's an element of play, fun and impermanence that's missing from the "carefully sceniced pike" with DCC equipped engines, computer controlled switching and timed schedules.

Seeing all the points and thinking about the insanity running that layout makes me extremely happy for some strange reason.

Wish i could do that with Trackmaster grey...
