layout size dictates scale?

My first major trackplan was for an 8.5 x 12 ft space in a spare bedroom. It was a twice around single track layout with a reversing loop and a stub end yard so the layout could be operated as an out-and-back. I think this is adequate space for HO but you won't be able to do what you can in N scale. If you are alright with that then I would go the HO scale route because I like HO scale. Maybe you don't care for it as I do, but if your wife likes it, that is worth some consideration too. I don't think you will have much room for operations if you have all the scenes your wife describes. <br /> <br />Myself, I am still waiting for that big basement. Good Luck - Ed
