I saw this posing on another forum, and thought it might be interesting to get viewpoints on this forum,...

As a modular model railroader, I've met a variety of model railroad groups over the years. Some groups are very open and friendly while others aren't. Just the nature of human interaction, I believe.

I have ben thinking a bit about track schematics for my layout, both for each town for diagrams to possibly put on the fascia or for various purposes on the computer or in the future when I get to having a dispatch area.  While I have seen many on here, I don't know what constitutes drawing the schematics "correctly" or if there even is a right or wrong or particular conventions.  I tried searching but that didn't find me anything.

There am I happily build an HO layout in my hobby room (staging to staging and 9' x 9') and then I said to my wife "If I had done this in N, I could have had a roundy roundy!". "I like the little trains" says she. "That's why I haven't repainted any of my locos", says I, "in case I need to sell them!".

So now I am sitting here contemplating!
