Can anybody suggest a web site with plans for LEGO Duplo trains?
I've searched the net for a while without any interesting results. Any hints appreciated!

I'm not aware of any sites that are dedicated to DUPLO train layouts, but there are certainly interesting layout ideas out there. For example, this was included in set 2932:
There are also loads of great creations in this Pinterest category:

Meta: old thread, but one of the top google search results. so here my 5 cents.
https://www.duplo-schienen.de/lego-duplo-schienen-bauanleitungen.html German Website, has 40 setup plans (linked above) plus also some general rules when it comes to track design, track switches, crossings. Top rule: always connect a switch's single end to a single end of another switch, never connect the single end to one of the double ends - or some parts of the track might never be reached.
My "organic oval" design rule:
Create a semi circle (6 curves), add any number of straight tracks at any space in between (or at the end), create the exact same setup a 2nd time and you can always connect both to a closed track. examples here: https://ibb.co/ZKKCxFn
