Maybe I should put it this way: Around-the-walls style requires total dedication of "model railroad area" to the space used. Although a 4 x 8 may require "walk-around-room", it can also get shoved out of the way when you need to cut some lumber in the garage, fix your bike, etc. I'm definitely still a fan of around-the-walls style layouts, but I'm wondering if they'll fit in with my other garage needs. I will say this: If I was in N scale, I would no-doubt have a shelf layout. N scale is small enough that you could have return loops within a 2.5 or so wide shelf. That is awesome, and extremely tempting. Unfortunately, my heart is in HO, so I'm stuck with it! Arggghhh!
