indent moduleBranchBend

indent

45° Bend

[~18" x 18" Branch, Complexity 3/10]

indent A bend is a half corner that softens railway branching for a more natural flow in an extremely compact footprint. Two bends can be used to create a joggle or 90° corner.

90° Corner

[22-9/16" x 22-9/16" Branch, Complexity 6/10]

indent This is a critical piece unless you have a really long room or hallway to work with. Several track variations can be achieved within a corner module – even in this very limited space...

The outside corner extends nearly two feet beyond the leg supports of the railway table. Kids sitting or leaning on the outside corner can put considerable strain on the end joints and/or cause the table to tip. Attach a third leg support in the corner for stability.

Tee

[22-9/16" x 27-1/8" Branch, Complexity 7/10]

indent A tee allows for additional branching and one additional end.

moduleBranchCross

indent

Cross

[27-1/8" x 27-1/8" Branch, Complexity 7/10]

indent A cross introduces two branches and allows a railway to expand and fill a room. Placed in the center of the layout, it creates a hub and spoke arrangement, but placed near a layout end, it creates new return paths and accommodates multiple trains.
