hey Guys:
Imagine trying to model this!
Instead of "pounding the diamond(s)", it;s more like pound the WEAVE!

WOW talk about a maze of trackage!
Where is that junction located? It looks like England.
That would be a sweet place to watch trains.

wholy cow...
with double and single slip switches, straight and curved diamonds WITH a third pair of tracks running perpendicular to the diamonds... and in the lower left corner, there's a derail switch.
Why, there's even a switch (upper middle) with a diamond crossing through it...
Beautiful track photo. Would make a tremendously hard puzzle. Question, imagine the dispatchers job keeping all this in order during rush hour?!
And, could you imagine being in charge of this with-out having a radio to call upon the locomotive engineers (or "Train-Men" in the U.K) besides controlling the semaphores?
Again, beautiful picture.

I don't have a one track mind. It depends on the turn-out.
"I love your catenary!"
Is that a power-trip or just another pick-up line?

Alright.... who divided by zero?
No, seriously. There's a black hole forming underneath all that. They should have known better!

To make matters worse is the third rail electrified trackage to the right.
