Hello njtransit, Marty McGuirk, former MR associate editor and now VP product development for InterMountain, came up with the best axiom I've ever encountered for the question you're asking: Site, scale, subject. Aside from the "spaghetti bowl" arrangement, it's not likely you'll obtain much satifying operation or scenic effect from cramming a double-track HO scale layout into that area. My layout room is 9 x 14 feet, and I entertained the idea of putting in a single-track HO scale main line (SP&S, of course!), but opted instead for an HO scale switching layout, and I'm glad I did. Remember site, scale, subject -- and in this case it sounds to me as if N scale is the better choice for what you want to do. Regards, Paul Schmidt Contributing Editor Trains.com
