2015 December - Upper Level Plan

MR2015-12-UpperLevelPlan


Plan for upper level.  Wood purchased in August 2015 and cutting began in late autumn but paused whilst minor variations considered. The dark green under the track indicates top board, mostly level.  Lighter green around bottom left is the upper part of the spiral.  The lighter green across the middle is a viaduct - the plan is to have this lifting off when necesary.  The grey will be a Faller Roadway.

The upper level will contain a double track circuit, a return loop and a marshalling yard.The yard should be able to handle three trains of about 20 wagons.

The finished layout will thus have four circuits, or one continous loop around lower and upper levels, the spiral in between and both return loops.
