Michael — You are right! There’s a definite flaw to this track plan as illustrated. It is obvious there should be a ‘stub’ piece of specially cut track to align trackage in/out of switch for the inside passing track..Someone was asleep at the ‘switch’ (sorry couldn’t resist) when they chose to do this illustration for Tubular Track Plan..
In the second layout print labeled “Fastrack” Is there a list of tracks needed to build this layout ? The numbers cannot be read.

In the tubular track layout, on the inside loop at the top, check the alignment of the track coming out of the switch.
