I am wanting to install a ceiling track in my garage/man-cave and my question are I have room for 112 ft. of track in 33 x 23 and I am thinking I need to buy a 8 ft. circle for the 4 curves but dont want to limit what engine that I can run or risk dumping the cars off the track so maybe I need a 12 ft. circle. I want the train to move pretty good and also look realistic. I do plan on putting up guardrail around the track but wondering if its only needed in the curves. Also on the 23 ft. section over the garage door center rail I will need to rise my height 3 inches to get over the rail over a 23 ft. span. The highest point of the rise will be at 11 1/5 Ft, so is this going to cause problems. One last point of interest my wife purchased some 1950s Louise Marx signal and spot lights today from a consignment store and wondering if I can hook them to the track and how to test the lighting without the transformer or track available. Im thinking maybe a 9 volt battery. Thanks for any advice! Tommy

Here are some photos of my indoor layout. It runs around the living room, ( The bridge in front of the fire place is Centered on the room, the fire place is not) Through the wall into our hall closet, then through the Bathroom, through our Bedroom closet, around our Bedroom then across the Hallway and into our Office then back in the living room. I still have a lot of work to do on it to finish it up, but the train runs good.
