Indoor shunting layout with detailed scenery

[ThePurplePrimer]

Just a little thought from someone who runs (live steam) on an indoor line. In your original post you mentioned realistic scenery. Speaking from personal experience (dammit), I would take a moment to work out where buildings (even if half relief), platforms, coaling bays etc. might go. Being able to shunt and enjoy the scenery is double the fun - and trying to make space after laying track can be an "interesting" activity. :

Thanks for the comment

I have a scribble of where the scenery will go - it won't all be buildings as such. I think I have it more or less worked out.

When I have the track plan settled I will overlay the scenery ( as scribbles ) so you can all see what I have in mind

 

[ThePurplePrimer]

I think that your plan is pretty sound and Inglenook is a great fun way to go. Just one thing concerns me, you have a Kick Back Siding. How have you planned to use this? Without a run-round it could be problematical. Either ditch it or extend the middle siding so that you can join it via another Point to the left of the 3 dead ends may be an answer. But if the siding that leads to the Kick Back is not long enough for a loco and a Wagon, then you may need to look at Chain Shunting Wagons in. Loads of fun, I had an Exhibition layout whee this was part of the Operation. Always caused a stir at Shows.

Well spotted

I was playing with this in my mind last night and realised the same thing - ooops

Not yet decided on how I want to resolve it
