This DOUBLE LOOP OVAL is 47" x 23" with no incline and generous curves (195 mm inside, 220 mm outside). Check out the video and you will see how serious a train you can run on a layout that big and with curves that gentle. That's right: long trains with American-style locomotives and American-style cars are not only NO PROBLEM, they are what this layout was DESIGNED FOR. 
 
     We would encourage you to watch the video a 2nd time -- this time to focus on what we call the ILLUSION of Z Scale: When you combine one of our inserts with an outer oval, now the mainline trains disappear from sight for so long a time that there is no sense of a train chasing its own tail--instead, it now looks, especially when you take one step back, like a train that is a mile away.
 
     The website price is 10% less than that which is on eBay and includes FREE SHIPPING.
 
     AND NOW LET'S TALK ABOUT AN IMPORTANT ADVANTAGE OF ORERING OFF OUR WEBSITE: FOR WEBSITE CUSTOMERS WE CAN EASILY CUSTOMIZE THE SIZE OF THE LAYOUT. On eBay, we are restricted to a single stock size that we can keep on hand (and we picked 47 x 23 for that mainly because shipping is so cheap). But, if you love modeling, we think you will adore what becomes possible were we to to extend the layout, making it either LONGER or WIDER (or both). OR PICTURE THIS LAYOUT ON A BIGGER BED WHERE ON THREE SIDES (BACK, LEFT, AND RIGHT) A NEW BASE SECTION (ONE WITHOUT TRACKS) RISES 2" ABOVE THE HEIGHT OF THE BASIC LAYOUT-- WHERE EACH OF THE THREE SIDES CAN BE AS WIDE AS YOU WISH.
 
     OR PICTURE THIS LAYOUT ON A BIGGER BED WHERE ON THREE SIDES (BACK, LEFT, AND RIGHT) A NEW BASE SECTION SITS 2" HIGHER THAN THE BASIC LAYOUT-- WHERE EACH OF THE SIDES CAN EXTEND AS FARA AS YOU WISH--and be perfect for modeling or for you to ask us to put in a point-to-point track line on it (non-powered OR auto-reversing, as you wish).
 
     NOTE THAT THIS LISTING INCLUDES JUST THE DOUBLE TRACK OVAL (insert layouts are all sold separately) with glued-down scenery / hand-ballasted track and two power feeds (but no buildings,  power control, locomotives, or train cars).  
 
     We hope you will also check out the smaller layouts we sell, like the ELONGATED FIGURE 8 or the TRUNK LINE (train in a tree) or the MAGIC MOUNTAIN.  This double loop was designed to perfectly surround any of our smaller layouts.
 
     To see our personal favorite, check out our MAGIC MOUNTAIN listing -- which stacks THREE LAYOUTS (this 47" x 23" double-track outer oval on the bottom, the smaller 36" x17" single-track oval in the middle, and the Bookcase line (32" x 13") with its mountain and waterfall on the top. You would have FOUR trains running at a time!
 
     We offer free shipping but we do NOT accept returns. In addition, because each layout is custom built,  there will be some difference in appearance between the layout you get and the one used for the original video and pictures.
 
     Size: 47" L x 24" W x 3" H. Radius: 195 mm on inner track, 220 mm on outer loop -- no incline. All track is Rokuhan.
