Adam, I'm not sure this will work for you but here is what I did for my son. He has a 4 x 8 ish layout which must be taken down after we use it for a week or so. We don't realy have 'Right-of-Way' for the railroad, it's more like an easement. I notched a piece of 2 x 4 to the depth of the plywood and screwed/glued it to the edge of his tabletop. This makes the 4 ft dimension 4 ft - 5 in. I also hinged the board in the middle of the 8 ft dimension to make it easier to store. Later, after we buy a home with a full basement, we will build off of this area to make my railroad. Anyway, this may be a method of addind width to your layout where you need it. Good Luck - Ed
