On the website of Noch (www.noch.com) in Germany, you can find a number of track plans for different kind of tracks.
I tried to rebuild the plan "Salzburg" for roco geoline tracks in Anyrail. It's strange, but it doesn't fit at all.
Am I making mistakes, or are the plans of Noch not correct?
Has somebody experience with this?

Thx, Erik

Hi Erik,

An update on your question: we've tried to create the same plan with the other rail systems as well, as indicated on the Noch plans. As they are supposed to be put onto a prefabricated landscape, it seems that they all suffer a bit to fit on that.

In most of them, a lot of short pieces are required, an none of them follows the natural geometry of the track manufacturer.

So I think that they'll fit in practice, but are not really that exact.

Hope this helps,

David.

I'm just looking for a nice track plan for roco geoline.

I know that the opinions about this track are very different, and most rail hobbyists don't really like it. It was in a start set and for me it's OK. And the fact that many people are not very fond of it, causes that you can find extra track rather easy on ebay or shop-sites.

My available space is not big (+- 2,8 m x +- 1,5 m) and I'm just surfing and looking for ideas. So I found the Noch site, with some nice plans.....

To be complete: my period of interest is IV and V, and I like the big German diesellocs as the BR218, and now the even bigger locs from independent companies as DLC, rail4chem and so on. My focus will be on goods traffic, with some passenger trafic to give a reason to build a station.
