Drawings of the layout at 1/1 scale
The drawing software offers the advantage of easy management of
corrections.
In addition, they can work in 3D and integrate the scenery in the
design.
Among CAD software adapted to model railroading, I chose Raily4. (see Links)
From CAD drawings, I made a blueprint at scale 1.
For this I have used kraft paper roll 1.20m wide, cut to the length of
the layout (4m10).

Model of the layout at 1/5th scale
To complete the plans, a model will be much more representative of the
project,
it will help to represent the future layout in 3 D.
In model railroading, John Allen
in the 60s had already understood the interest of such a model.
Jacques Le Plat has
realized a gorgeous one for his layout. (see Links)
