I am more or less in the same boat. I am also doing a 4x8 layout after about 15 years away from the hobby. My last one was a simple flat plywood board type with buildings and painted scenery and crappy trees. This will be my first "real" layout with sculpted features and such. I plan to us the EZ Track system for my track but I am going to put something under it to deaden the noise a bit. The loud clickey clack of the plastic roadbed is a bit too much for me running it on my floor, I can just imagine what it will be like on a 4x8 board. I plan to do a double loop with the outer loop going up over a mountain possibly with a tunnel and two bridges. The inner loop will service a coal mine in the side of the mountain. Biggest problem I have is figuring out the best way to elevate the EZ Track and also to make the bridges.
