 Dave: I'm about as far from what you want to do as I can be! But I'd like to mention by way of support that its YOUR railroad and YOUR hobby. Build whatever you want and have fun doing it. That you are considering both your wife and child in what you plan is commendable. A thought you might consider? Perhaps as you move farther from the 'real world' portion of the layout the scene might become more abstract and elemental, bright colors and basic shapes. Something on the order of the landscapes in the Beatles movie Yellow Submarine or the Peter Max posters from the 60s/70s era. My daughter loved them as I recall, Yours might as well? Have fun, you seem to have a great idea for a family railroad. Randy
