Don has shared his dual level HO scale track plan.
You can see the picture’s of Don’s dual level HO scale track plan here.
One notable feature of Don’s plan is the use of space-efficient design. By layering the tracks, he effectively doubles the amount of operational area within a compact footprint. The transition between levels is accomplished with a well-constructed grade, which ensures smooth operation for all types of trains and minimizes the risk of derailments.
Don has also paid attention to practical considerations. The dual levels are supported by a robust framework that allows easy access for maintenance and adjustments. He’s incorporated removable sections and access hatches to ensure that even the most challenging spots can be reached without hassle.
Additionally, Don’s layout benefits from strategically placed lighting and scenery. The upper level is illuminated with overhead LEDs that highlight the cityscape, while the lower level features softer, ambient lighting that enhances the rural scene.
In summary, track plan demonstrates how elevation changes can add depth and operational interest to a model railroad. His thoughtful approach to design and execution results in a layout that is both visually impressive and functionally versatile.
