After searching through the database for two years, the BURLINGTON BRANCH is the best starting point I can come up with for my 10' x 15' room. I have decided to extend the south wall into the open center floor area with a 4' x 4' peninsula and run a lift out or swing bridge across from the east side just south of the gallows turntable. That way I can run continuous loop and still have plenty of yard switching. Love this database!
