I am working on my 7th layout at present. All have been HO from a 4' X 8' to a 12' X 14' around the walls. <br /> What have I learned? <br /> Good trackwork is VERY, VERY important, make sure to get it right. <br /> Use the largest curve radius as possible. <br /> Use quality products for track work. <br /> Good bench work is very important. <br /> Good electrical connections are very important. <br /> Scenery can always be torn down and done over. <br /> Wait a few days before you decide if something is really good or really bad. <br /> Patience pays off in the long run. <br /> If it is not fun, you are doing something wrong. <br /> <br /> Have fun, <br /> Paul
