JD, check this out for the size differences: http://www.walthers.com/exec/sets This one, http://www.walthers.com/exec/page/set_scales , shows pictorially the difference in sizes, so should help you decide better. In reading what you want, you probably want a G scale, as that's the common version used for garden layouts such as what you want to do. G scale equipment can handle odd debree, such as leaves, and limbs falling on the tracks much better than any of the other scales. Also, G scale is better suited for the live steam and smoke as you also stated you wanted that. As for sounds, most scales can now be sound equipped, so that's not a problem. Sorry to hear about the cancer, but based on that (not knowing the exact kind), I'd also recommend G for the ease of use when or if your dexerity should fail due to medicines and such. Hopefully that helps, Jay.
