You could do something like a smallish switching layout with two 2x4 foot modules. They can be easily stored away when not in use. You can even make them to set up on a table, instead of with their own legs. One of the local clubs has a switching layout that is portable (although not really light weight - it could be modified to be much lighter). The track plan is based on John Allen's "Time Saver". For starters on small track plans, try these links: http://www.carendt.com/ -> really small layouts! http://www.naisp.net/users/mfischer/m_train2.htm -> som eideas in N that might translate to HO with modifications. There are some shelf switching layouts about 1/2 way down the page. For modular info, try these: http://www.railwaybob.com/Modules/MRIndex.htm -> railway bob's comprehensive "how-to" on foam top modules. http://www.hotrak.ca/ -> the local modular club. Check their links section for even more modular info. Good luck! Andrew
