I've often thought about getting something like this layout, but haven't done so as yet.

I have. While I am a dealer for both Rokuhan and Noch I would still say I would use Rokuhan again even if I wasn't a dealer! BigGrin

Take a look at one I put together for a customer a year ago via YouTube videos:

Great info regarding the original question, with video samples. ThumpUp

In short - it can be done without problems as I understand it. Smile

Frank at zscalehobo.com has been very helpful in getting me set-up with the Cortina layout and Rokuhan track. He has the track plan and translated building suggestion from Noch as well. I'm planning on adding the left extension to the Cortina layout (Noch 84350) and I have figured out the track plan using SCARM and will also plan on adding the new Rokuhan Digital Turtable and Roundhouse. I have been extremely happy with Rokuhan track and accessories.

Thanx for getting back about the use of Rokuhan track, I will be using it also. What about the Rokuhan uncoupler?? Is it on the way or do you have to use a Marklin??
Thanx again,
docfinace

The September/October 2015 issue of Ztrack has an article on using Rokuhan track on Noch's Cortina. We receive a lot of requests about the track required and how to use it on the layout. This article covers it with photos from Frank at Z.Scale.Hobo who had built the Cortina with Rokuhan. This issue is currently in the mail to our subscribers.

The R077 uncoupler is now in stock and shipping to customers and dealers. You can find it on our track site:

Cortina layout
Hello! I built a Cortina using Marklin track. After building a suitcase layout utilizing Rhokuhan track, I tore all the Marklin off my Cortina and replaced it with Rhokuhan. I think Rhokuhan is superior track system.

That's an interesting comment - in what ways do you think it's superior?
