My only suggestions is to add another switch to your town track. Replace one of the 036 curves and create another siding. You’ll need somewhere to put the old car while you swap it with the new. keep that diamond piece. Have it stubbed on both ends of the table. Obviously no room for a figure 8 style layout but a 10 inch piece on each side helps create a small story. There is now another railroad you have to cross to get to your industries. Heck Add a tower! Plenty of opportunities in small spaces to tell stories.
Absolutely. I have actually since change the layout design a bit to something that will be just as interesting and have a run around. I'll have another update with the new design and bench work hopefully sooner rather than later.
It should be an interesting and fun build. I’m looking forward to seeing how things evolve and change as we get to the final result. Thanks for coming along for the ride. 😃
@@whitmorestrains no need for a decoupling track. I’m using the app as well as my universal remote. Once the Cab 3 app drops though they’ll really be no need for the remote since I can control 3 trains at once.
@@CWFTrains I will do a few videos if I roll with that idea. Can't wait to see your upcoming videos! I have a very wacky idea that will make everything interesting lol😆, but again its only an idea. I've had at least 50 and have only done 2 or 3 of them 😂
Good ideas. Looking forward to updates.
Thanks! Looking forward to moving forward with it. 😁

Fantastic, I can’t wait to see your updates! 👍
I appreciate it! I’m looking forward to putting it together. 😃
I like what you do, you are really creative at working with a small space
I really appreciate it! I certainly try. I’m excited to see what I can do with this new little layout. 😃
Great idea especially when space is limited. Looking forward to see how this comes together!
Absolutely Mike. Hopefully I can inspire a few people too along the way. Should be an interesting journey. 😁
If you’re really strapped for space, a Dockside switcher can really bring a lot without the real estate!
Indeed!! Can even toss in 2 ore/ballast cars and have even more room to work with. 😃
Well done!
Appreciate it!!! It’s going to be an interesting adventure for sure. 😁
Awesome 😊
Thanks. 😁
I’m really looking forward to seeing this come together so I can learn a bit more about switching layouts!

@@CWFTrains I assume you are using the LionChief app? Any need for a decoupling track?

Cool switching op. 💯
Thanks! Looking forward to sharing more as things develop. 😃
Something different, I like the idea
Thanks. Hopefully it works out well and folks can draw their own inspiration from it. 😃
Hey just subscribed! Layout looks great, I like the switching layout idea! I might event do something like that too
Thanks for subscribing! I'm looking forward to seeing how this one comes out. Be sure to post videos of yours if you ever go that route.

@@TrainBandit lol, well whatever you cook up I look forward to seeing it! Hopefully I will have more to update everyone on sooner rather than later. 😃
Looks cool, but I wonder if there could be room made to add a runaround siding...
That’s certainly a possibility as the project develops. 😃
A run around track would be nice
A run around is a possibility. We’ll see as the layout develops. 😁
You need a run around
