Jumping scales from HO to something larger

I operate G-scale as well as HO - not due to eyesight but as I wanted something suitable to run in the garden. I'm now looking at building an indoor layout - probably something industrial as this would fit the loco and cars I have. I was surprised how small a space is actually needed for G - the tightest set-track curve radius is about 2ft - and due to the size of the locos and cars they look far more impressive than HO scale equivelents. <br /> <br />If G doesn't appeal, I would suggest O scale - there was a layout featured in Continental Modeller magazine a few months ago which managed to pack a large amount of track and operation into a fairly small attic without looking crowded. There's a fair bit of reasonably-priced equipment available in O, and there also seems to be a decent range of detailing and conversion kits to personalise your fleet, as well as complete loco kits.
