Loop with long siding. Our scenery is urban / residential. This could be either a small freight or commuter pike.

A point-to-point railway with loop and crossover. This makes a great little display railway for use with bumper-activated motorized units, such as a trolley.

A point-to-point railway that is actually two intersecting systems. Our scenery hints at a trolley pike. You could also adapt scenery toi sue this as an industrial shunting system. It can be adapted, expanded, or even incorporated into an existing model railway.

A slight modification of the previous railway uses a straight siding in place of the curved one. We adapted scenery only slightly. Again, this can also be an industrial railway. It can also be appended to an existing layout.

Here we have another railway where a short lien intersects a larger system. These are point-to-point rail lines that could accommodate trolleys, small motorized units or small freight shuttles. This could be adapted to a fine display railway.

A variant of the above railway adds a spur to parallel part of the short bisecting line. There, one could make a shared station or terminal for both systems. this could be a good trolley system or freight shuttle. Of course, it has potential as an extension or addition to an existing layout, or as a basis for expansion into a larger layout.

Here is a simple freight or trolley shuttle pike using a redundant set of spurs. It could be intriguing, like a puzzle. This railway would make a nice "base" for expansion or addition to an existing layout.
