033: How To Lay-out Track Directly On Bench Work on Model Railroad Layout

In this episode of It's My Railroad, host Steve Brown begins laying out the track in what we call "the track zone". This is a rough idea of where the track will be laid so that we can get everything surrounding the track ready to go. The basic idea for this track plan was developed in AnyRail6. But, the regular guy is having a hard time translating that directly to the bench work. SO, this is what we decided to do. You've probably got your own way of doing this sort of thing so be sure to leave that in a comment below!
Our N gauge layout is featured in both Sidetracked, and It's My Railroad showing you tips, techniques, and failures from a regular guy point of view. Whether you are enjoying Z scale, N Scale, HO Scale, or any other scale of model railroad layout, we know you will enjoy every episode and probably learn a little something along the way. So, what are we waitin for? Lets get on this right now!
