Title: track plans
Post by: ERIKDRED on April 29, 2007, 09:38:13 AM
    I am new to model railroading and have just ordered my first train set(since I was a little kid).  I bought an Athearn set partially because it came with Bachmann N/S E-Z track.  It won't be long before I want to go beyond
an just an oval set up.  Atlas seems to have all kinds of books and published track plans, but I've seen just a very few E-Z track plans (in a basic model railroad track plans book).  Are there more published track plans out there?  Does Bachmann have any.  I'd like to get some ideas for later on down the road.
                                                                                  Thank you.

    Terry,
       Thanks for the tips.  That web site looks like it's going to be very helpful.
