This slice of a station, located between a pedestrian access overbridge and a city street crossing bridge, is suitable to represent almost any passenger station, located anywhere in the world. It’s designed to use 60-foot cars (about 8.5″ long), which are a little more manageable in our micro world. If you want to use full-sized 80footers

LAYOUTS USING SECTOR PLATES Layouts Using Sector Plates. December 13, 2013 by Carl Arendt. A popular space-saving device is the sector plate — a track or tracks mounted on a board that is pivoted at one end so it can match up with several approaching tracks. Here are some micro layouts that take advantage of this clever device to provide excellent operatingcapability.

This slice of a station, located between a pedestrian access overbridge and a city street crossing bridge, is suitable to represent almost any passenger station, located anywhere in the world. It’s designed to use 60-foot cars (about 8.5″ long), which are a little more manageable in our micro world. If you want to use full-sized 80footers

This layout represents a very different operating scheme from Van Gelder Zonen, though it is designed for the same space and the same scale, 1:36 running on 16.5mm track to represent 60 cm (2-foot) gaugeprototypes.
