For the passed 2 years I have been looking into HO scale layouts!! To me this is the best for looks..Now at the age of 26 I am ready to start...I have been doing homework and notes for the last year and half..But I find myself scared to start...Not sure where to start at! I wanna go with a 4 x 8 layout...Wanna start small to learn the ins and outs of the hobby! Would like to have 3 locos on this layout along with a Industrie/construction layout..Once I learn more this 4 x 8 layout will expand into a lager area..City and farm layout as well..I could use some good tips and help..Also I would like to use DCC power. (Is this good?) Going as real as I can on this layout..moving vehicles and so on... <br /> <br />Also for my bench work i`am going to use plywood and foam for the layout base!! On this layout I would like to have a main line loco pulling over 60 cars..and then a b line loco pulling around the same..and a yard loco that moves freight and other cars around..real into the locos with over 60 cars..I live right next to the tracks..We have about 12 diff locos that use these tracks daliy..And pulling over 100 cars at a time.. <br /> <br />If anyone could please help and point me the way I need togo would be great!! Thanks[:D]
