I have just completed building my bench 75"x 96" with a 24" x 33" opening in the off center. I am brand new to the hobby, And am not sure where to go from here? i have a basic design traced out but not sure if it will actually work: when i try to put the track together it seems like it wants to either point to far inward or to far outward toward the wall. I have three questions for now
1.Will a standard set of track with a double loop from inside around and back to outside?
2. I have two separate train sets, one using older track purchased in the late 1980's and new set that has the easy track. can the two types of track be used together and if so what do id do to raise the old track to so the line up?
3. is it better to buy pre-made roadbed or is there a way to practically make roadbed out of sheet cork and how thick should the cork be>
