layout ideas - leylandvictory2 - 07-23-2014

I can't find a thread sharing layout ideas so I will start a new thread to share layout ideas.

I installed 5 double crossover so that trains from track #1 can switch all the way to track #4. Trackmaster Knapford works the best. I also have Tomy Knapford but it doesn't work as well.

If you happen to have 4 1/6 of the regular trackmaster tracks, you can do something like this. The 1/6 regular trackmaster tracks are extremly rare. I don't know which set comes with them or where to get them.

Nice ideas Leylandvictory1

There is also this switch point track if you only have a single track layout and want to easily split into 4 tracks for a Knapford Station. that I picked up recently from the Japan Auctions. They also work with the Tomy garage/storage case tracks.

if you have too many monorail bridge supports, you can use them to build an empire state building or something like that.  Photo by  Abd Shahril Hisham

Wow, that is very impressive. I wonder how many he used to build so high which is what, four or five feet tall? Is that in his home or a show or shopping center? Your Link takes me to a Facebook error page that says 'this page is not available'

Must be they blocked non-bookers from their page. Do they have YouTube videos maybe. I would like to know more of how they built this.

I'm pretty sure some people have 3d printed them and their own custom track out that you can download.
