Model Making Quick Tip: Drawing Track Plans

I am often asked how I draw my track plans, so here it is! In this quick Tip I demonstrate my tried and true methods for drawing model railroad track plans using good old pencil and paper. No fancy software required! I discuss planning for grades, easements, clearances and trackside details. Your drawing doesn't need to be fancy to get the job done, just as accurate as you can make it.

Thanks for watching, amigos!
