To be more specific, I want a shelf type layout. 2 x 8 is just a number I threw out there. I could make a larger layout in the garage, but I have a feeling I'd enjoy it more if it was a smaller layout in my home office. i.e. - I'd actually work on it because I'm in my home office all the time, I wouldn't have the dust problems associated with the garage (no, I'm not going to re-fini***he garage just for a layout). If I go HO, a traction layout could fill the desire for a continuous run. Or, I could go N scale and have a continuous run on something only 2 feet wide. That's pretty tempting. There was an article in MR years ago, where on a 4 x 8, this guy had a helix that went down into the layout, then came back up - leaving a lot of room for staging. In N scale, I could do that in probably 2.5 feet wide. I am struggling to choose between HO & N!
