These are all great ideas, thanks everyone, I'm sure I will be coming back here for questions as I build this layout. I think I'm going to go with HO since N is so difficult to work with, I'm afraid that N scale will be more work than it is fun and I don't think even the highest quality engines and rolling stock look very detailed in N scale. Maybe some day in the future I will model in N, my eyesite is perfect so that isn't a concern, its the realism thats most important to me. 1940-1950 era with mainly steam locos and a couple diesels. Once I decide on a design I'll proabably use some good looking track like Peco or Micro Engineering and build a small section at a time so I can play a little as I go.
