Having watched at least one person follow their folder of specially
printed LU track diagrams in preference to looking out of the window I
may have to disagree!

Still, each to their own.

Or is there yet another designation for such folk?

There's a phenomenon known as microgricing, which is like track bashing
but involves individual crossovers and platforms - preferably keeping
track of the direction you were travelling and scoring it both ways or
(for bays) for both arrival and departure

Myself I still have a 1984 Baker. I might think about getting a new one
if I still went out track-bashing, but there would be too many closed
lines to ink in !
