This will run two separate loops with two different transformers. I can than run two trains around the outside. I would like to run another train in the middle space. Any suggestions for the middle train? Was thinking figure 8 but not sure. Any suggestions would be great! Thanks Ron 20170913_1 (2).JPG

This is about the 10th thread you've opened regarding your layout plans. Can these please be restricted to one complete thread, rather than opening a new one every time you have a new question. Also, I have previously asked you to desist from posting thread titles in Capital letters, which you seem to have ignored.

I am very sorry. Never got the notice about caps. All my other titles are not in caps so I don't know when you warned me. Other sites tell you to post a new question in a new thread as no one will see it buried in a different thread. Disappointed as this forum seemed to help with the marklin system. Were gone! Thanks to all that help me. Maybe I'm a little old for this. Ron

All the other titles were edited by the moderators. Don't leave. When a new user posts on your thread, it pops it back up to the top. No need to keep on posting the same topic in a new thread when added comments pop it back up to the top.

I still think you are squeezing too much into a tight space and locomotives will not go around it. You are asking too much for a confined space.

That says to me you don't check your posts after creating them.

Advice was given here:- https://www.marklin-user...Big-Maybe-Reversing-Loop

We are not trying to prevent you from posting, or trying to be unhelpful, but this forum does have thousands of members worldwide, so we do need to keep some order and follow some basic rules.

As Hobo points out, I removed the capitals on your other post headers.

And his advice regarding tight curves is spot on, you don't want to compromise your ability to run trains if you introduce a potential problem area. You might be better off trying to run another loop around the outside rather than the inside.
