New Designs: Featuring the Automatic Switcher!

Our new shipment included many items that we wanted in our own PLARAIL collection.  This layout was built around incorporating R-16 3-way automatic switcher rail piece. The yellow knob at the bottom right allows you to switch between automatic and manual switching mode.


There are 3 loops that merge at the R-16 piece. We've turned the whitespace into a train yard and all the extra scenary we had. Here's the bird's eye of our newly designed layout:

Now a clip of a Tsubame Shinkansen making automatic rounds between 3 loops with the help of R-16:
  

Other pieces that helped to create this layout include:
  • 6x R-06 Double length slopes
  • 3x R-18 Climbing slope sets
  • 1x R-16 Automatic 3 way switcher
  • 1 Ippai Tsunago Rail Set (contains blue iron bridge)
  • 3x R-13 Single to Double rail splitters
  • 3x R-11 Turn out rail splitters
  • 1x R-24 N-shape splitter
  • 6x R-04 Double width straight rails
  • 6x R-05 Double width turn rails
  • bunch of R-01 straight and R-03 curved rails
