This is the Layout from this year's Google Family Cirq(us) held at the Shoreline Amphitheater in Mountainview Ca.. Dominic Phillips Event Marketing organized the whole thing. I worked for them. Crazy intense and intricate. I was in charge of the highlighted area ---} 80 foot Ferris Wheel = Creatures by East Bay Vivarium = catering by Global Gourmet = 2 bars = 40 tables w/ umbrellas = Circus performers and a Full size stage w/ 3 bands : Beatropolis, Gaucho and Diego's Umbrella.
Check them out ...Friggin' sweet music.

While waiting for the release of the tracks I've been continuing to edit the layout to make the lines flow a lot better.
-I moved the passenger station into the interior loop to allow more space for the station building and allow a longer train
-Shifted the switches for the siding to better align to the stud grid.
-Redesigned the spaghetti mess of a junction in the top of the layout to make a more aesthetically pleasing flow
-Fixed the lines that'll go through the cut-through. as it is off of a switch on the angle it needed a 1.6 straight to match the parallel.
-Smoothed out the curves in the cut-through so that it isn't a staggered curve.
Once the large radius curves and partial straights come out I can begin the build just a looping layout while waiting for the switch tracks coming down the development pipeline.
While designing the layout there are a couple of "rules" that I have set for myself.
1. 2+ mainlines -The initiating factor for the redesign is to include multiple loops where I can run multiple trains at once.
2. The removal of R40 curves. -They are way to tight especially for scale models. The same goes for the standard switch tracks.
3. A train can go from any track loop to any track loop going in any direction. -I didn't want to have to reverse direction to change the loop that the train was running on.
4. I want a tunnel. -Years ago for the basic circle of a layout I had I had built a 16x32 tunnel with a 32x32 park integrated into the side. The tunnel arch was just the basic (*x2 and *x3) slope bricks with the inverted versions beneath. Now I want an actual hillside and a long curved tunnel.
5. Landscape -With the increased detail of the track I really should have something better then bare baseplates. So I'm designing elevated landscape with lakes, a creek, a hillside with a tunnel and a cut-through, a forest of trees, farm fields. I don't have enough room for a city/ town so buildings are minimal.
6. Interchangeability -It probably wont happen with the first design of the layout but a goal I have is to make the landscape be on easily removable plates so that I can change the seasons by just swapping them around. (Large sheets of landscape with support pillars tiled with minimal connection points)
7. Metal track -If not for 9v capabilities then for aesthetics. metal rails are a must. I missed ME rails during my dark age and so was very excited when I came across the announcement of FxBricks' track proposal.
As it sits currently the layout design is at the maximum size it can be. I want to use this a a test bed for future projects and eventually have a large landscaped layout with distinct separate towns, varying landscapes, the ability to have running session/ operations on the layout. This part is all quite speculative and years in the future.
Several clubs had their N-, HO-, S-, and O- scale modular layouts running. It was a good opportunity to practice shooting blurry moving targets.

Our intern in the office used one of my photos for some marketing and the layout was rejected. I thought it looked pretty good, but who knows why marketing didn't like it.
John Bath's N gauge layout using the board and landscape I rescued from being thrown away. With church, pub, police phone box ("tardis"), factory, canal and barge (with N gauge dog), station and houses down a dead-end lane. Based on semi-industrial regions of north Derbyshire.
This is the layout sheet with all the points marked on. It includes the sidings off from the main board. It doesn't include the back section that joins the left and right siding sets, but included the points that connects to that section.
