The DUPLO track is different in width, type, and curvature, from the other LEGO train systems, so it requires different building strategies to create working track layouts.
It turns out that I'm building up quite a collection of track segments. Here's my current collection of tracks:
| X - Crosses | 11 |
Level Crossing | 4 |
|
| Y - Points | 10 |
Bridges | 2 |
|
| ) - Curves | 115 |
|||
| | - Straight | 73 |
Engines | 3 |
|
| Stop Track | 2 |
Smart Cars | 2 |
At 5" per straight and 5.25" per curve, that makes for
more than 94 feet (28.5 meters) of total track.
I generally don't run out of track anymore. :-)
