I would like help establishing a laundry list of considerations when designing a new layout. This would be for any sized layout.

For instance
1 . Establish the local or region (eastern PA)
2. Interchange
3. Ruling grade

You get the idea. This would make a great master list to check my work please add your imput

Thank you
