All right, I'm 13 and I want to model the Union Pacific in 1945 on a 4x8 layout. I have a room that my parents say I can set up trains in, it has 5 sides, kinda like an octagon. I was wondering how large or small of curves to use (it's gotta be able to take a new rivarossi big boy and a challenger). I'd also like to know what code of track to use (ex: 100, 83, etc.), what kind of track to use (thinking about E-Z track, don't wanna go through the trouble of laying down road bed), and what kind of layout set up you guys would suggest. Got any suggestions?[;)]
