Title: Laying Track with AnyRail 6
Post by: Flyhighmike on April 01, 2023, 06:36:21 PM
Hi Folks,

I am new to AnyRail but I have got on with it very well and produced a plan for my new layout. I just wondered if anyone can give me a prefered method of laying track.  Ive glued down a full size plan with repositionsable glue then used Copydex to glue down Woodland Scenics trackbed.  Is this a sensible method?

Cheers,

Mike

I think everyone has their own method.

Personally, I use 3mm cork or foam to create the roadbed.
I don't print the plan 1:1, but use a 10x10 cm grid to transfer important track element locations to the baseboard.
A 1:10 printout will then be sufficient and a lot easier to handle.
