Chip, the Hogwart's layout looks very cool, and the stock is very impressive. The "Draco" car almost cost me a keyboard
OK, I may have gotten a little carried away with RTS today. Here're two potential layouts:
1. This one is based on Great N-Pire Railroad from the book by Kent Wood and Ric LaBan. I made some minor changes, but mostly I used it to practice with RTS.
What I don't like here is that the industry is pretty much combined with the yard, except for one line off the elevated loop, and whatever town industry the small town loop serves.
2. This one is my interpretation of the advice given here, it's influenced by a few of the contest designs from your site. Note - the outer lower part of the oval is not the main line, it's the line that runs through the port. The inner lower part of the oval is the main line, and it runs on bridges above the port, it has no intersections with industry lines, I just didn't draw upper and lower levels separately.
What do you think?
