Place For Trains - Smallest N Scale layouts possible with Kato Unitrack Compact 

Just wanted to say thank you. It's OK seeing these curves on paper or in a layout building software, but it's more useful to see the real thing working. This is very helpful when trying to decide just how compact you can go! Cheers!

Perfect! I have one space on a layout that is only 22” wide and need to do a 180 turn there, so this showed that largest circle/diameter will work.

Great video, thanks for sharing. Is a really great way to learn about these small diameter tracks. I loved this video!

Thank you so much for this, I have been searching high and low for someone running this exact train on a Kato 7inch radius. Needed to confirm it ran, before I purchased it. Thank you so much!

I was having trouble finding this exact info for a train I am setting up for this Christmas. This is exactly the information I needed, Thank you very much :)

Thanks for sharing! Pretty cool example of the KATO Unitrack Compact track. I built a small layout on my desk and thankfully had enough space that my inner loop uses the same 20-170 track as your outer loop . I was then able to add a middle loop using 20-100 and 20-110 and then 20-120 and 20-132 for the outer loop.

Thanks so much for doing this it’s exactly what I was looking for.

Now this is great! I am continually impressed by what Kato has to offer! I want to do a small layout for my son in his bedroom, likely with some shelves or a small table. His bedroom is 12'x9', so I don't have a lot of space to work with.

Plenty of used Bachmann track for me at the moment. But these Kato tracks are appealing. Especially a tiny industry with a couple of 40' boxcars and maybe a SW1200ish switcher. Have some train fun on the go!!

Love the set on the inner circle

Ty so much been hunting for this info for ages !

Just found your channel and really enjoyed your two videos - hope you return to make some more content! I'd love to see more of these compact layouts!

Perfect. I have been looking for information like this. I am thinking about building a layout using a Ikea Lack table and it is only 55cm x 55cm.

Thank you for making this video. I'm making a layout with Kato track and don't have a lot of room myself. Just subbed

This is a great video. TY

my n scale lay-ou lives inside my piano bench. total size is 9 inches wide by 27 inches long. radius is 3 1/2 inches. I run an 0-6-0 steam engine on it.

Great information. We'll done.

A tougher test, which I see no one show, is using a radius bridge section with raised sides.

Smallest layout size for a large steam engine is 6x3 if anyone was wondering

Hi, hope you can help me what is the width of the 2nd oval please. Are they 20-174 curves. Thanks Nic

Great video brother I’ve got a table that’s 19.5 x 40 so I know what I’m buying with my refund

Very informative video, what is the approximate radius of the second smallest curve track and what is the Kato catalogue number for the curves. Thanks

How do you connect the kato unitrack feeder supply to the bacchman power pack? They have different ends.

Where do you buy from?
