Episode 2 of Model Railway Basics shows you how to go about laying track!

Welcome back to another episode of Model Railway Basics, my new tutorial series where I show you simple skills and techniques every beginner should know before building a model railway. Today is a big one - track laying! Some people can get worried about this and rightly so as if your track isn't laid correctly it can have a big effect on how well your trains run. Thankfully it isn't that difficult to get right and the technique I'll show you today works just as well whether you're using Set Track pieces or Flexible Track.
