If you're looking for ideas for a layout, can I suggest you take a look at the Illinois Railway Museum ( www.irm.org ). A museum is a superb idea for a small layout in my opinion, as you can operate short trains, often with unlikely loco and car combinations. You also have an excuse for buying pretty much any loco or car you like the look of - my museum line often has a CSX Dash 8-40B sat in the yard waiting for a C&NW Erie built hauling bilevel commuter cars to clear the single track - CSX has trackage rights on this (fictional) line. Hope this is of help/interest, as previous posts have stated, it is important that you plan thoroughly before lifting a saw!
