I was in a 12x16 room with O. Then I planned on an 18x20 room for O. And each time I was fairly content. Now I'm in a 20x20 room for HO and I still want more! (I supplicate that if I only had 30x30 feet I could do so much more!!!) Now I'm planning on a full circle roundhouse, with over 50 stalls (hey, plan ahead!)! Amazingly, I'm already planning on another deck for the layout. This is going to take a long time to get relatively finished (yes, I know that no layout is ever truly finished....) Someday, I'm going to buy one of those massive grociery store distributing facilities, and build the world's largest layout, in O no less![:)] (Selective compression will have no place on such a large pike!!!![8D]) <br />-Daniel <br />[/quote] I hope with the right size curves I'll be able to fit a Big Boy.[:D]
