I have converted layouts from one track style to another, changed minimum radius etc using RR Track software. Great way to do it. I even converted the most recent "Magic Mountain " layout 9/13 from Fastrack to Super-O using a minimum of cut sections using 99% factory sections and adapted it from a 1 way to a bidirectional layout
John,
We have not done any Standard gauge track plans.
Walt, contact our customer service section at 1-800-533-6655. They may be able to help you resolve the issue. I just tried to open it, and it worked fine.
Are there any standard gauge layout articles?
