[quote user="mike33469"] My current layout is around the room (room dim. 11'x13'). The layout is 24" wide all the way around. I would like to widen it by 18" for a total width of 42". Would that be too wide?  The layout height is 54". [/quote] Yes What are you trying to gain with this addition?  Can you fit it on a peninsula?  If that will be in the way have you considered fold down peninsula sections?  Having built a 48" wide layout myself, I can tell you that it is a real pain to reach the outer edges of the layout.  Something others havent mentioned is cleaning (the scenery).  Thats hard to do and not damage stuff when you are working at your arms length from the aisle.
