I'm using SCARM program, I wanted to duplicate the layout in one of my Atlas books. What I found is I like the switching layout I now have 4'x6' and not the continuous loop I was going to make.

Thanks for your input.

I have a 4x6 layout that took some work to duplicate and one section I had to leave out. I have been looking at switching layouts, this is an example. http://www.atlasrr.com/Code100web/pages/10017.htm. I have downloaded SCARM and Any Track (free) I guess there is more available with other track.     

I'm starting to feel as if I was given BAD advice at my LHS recommending E-Z track. It seem as if there are no track plans/layouts available to use as an example I purchased "E-Z MODEL RAILROADS" The E-Z Track Planning Guide & Layout Book, it did help in how to cut E-Z track nothing in the way plans and layouts. I have issues of Atlas track plans but they are not a one to one match.

Where can I find examples of layouts using E-Z track? i.e. (switching layouts)

Thank you, and have a Happy New Year.

I'm new to model railroading and I found a layout that I like by Atlas. My LHS recommended E-Z track after buying my track and looking closer the my layout I notice that 18" 1/3 section on my remote turnout left 44561 needs to be removed. Has anyone tried removing the 18" 1/3 section?

Comparing Bachmann layouts to other track manufactures, it seems that Bachmann should make turnouts without the 18" 1/3 section.
