Wiring large layouts
There is no doubt that, when it comes to large layouts, the unchallenged champion is N-Trak. A typical N-Trak layout can consist of 30 to 50 four foot modules. Larger regional gatherings can be over 100 modules. A national convention such as that at Chantilly, VA in 2004 can be over 500 modules. The tried and true techniques they use for large layouts are an excellent starting point for anyone planning a large layout.

This page will include links and references to N-Trak manuals and specifications for large modular layouts. The principles are directly transferable to large layouts in other scales, whether they are modular or permanent.
