Its gonna be in my living room after I put in a new wooden floor,
for now it is just colecting all kinds off RR modeling goodies, browsing the fora and armchair-modelling.
I just love your American basement lay-outs but having one where I live is allmost impossible,
I live in a dutch "polder" about 10-15 feet below sea-level: if i put a spade in the ground I immediately strike water!
I could model the French-Enghlish channel tunnel as someone suggested, but there wouldn't much to see: tossing trains into a tube to let them come out a bit further..
we have something like that, we call that plumming.

My layout is in the planning, dreaming stages, but will be in our dining room. That is if the superintendent approves the submitted plans!!!!!!

All my trains are in the basement. They take up most of it except for the washing machine, etc.

Same here, in the Garage, and under a storage loft.

We have a 22'6" x 18'6" den that houses our layout. It is 17' x 5' 6" HO. Still leaves room for the pinball machines , loveseat and tv stuff.

Mine's still in the planning stages; but if all goes well, it'll be an N scale in about a 3'x4' space. Small, I know, but that's what you get for living in an apartment. [;)]

We have a 2 1/2'x6' N scale layout in the livingroom and a 8'x10' HO layout in an 8'x20' trailer that also has a 8'x10; workshop.

Mine's in the basement, in the biggest room in the house!

Mine is in my head - Haven't built it yet.

My last layout was in my garage - 12' x 14'

I got bored with MR for a while and I was tired of not being able to park my car in the garage so I tore it down.

The next layout with be a bit smaller - 4' x 8'

Dedicated railroad room in the basement. It's 13 1/2 by 15 1/2, with stub ended staging yards outside the railroad room at either end of the run. It's a good size for me. Big enough to keep me busy ans small enough so I might actually get it " Close to finished" one day.
Have Fun,

I secured trackage rights before the amalgamation back in 89' so as it stands 1/2 the basement belongs strickly to the MESS, above ground anyway. Everything below the track either is christmas or camping gear.

Mine is in the basement 11'3" x 18'8". This is turning out to be a good size for now. Smaller and I couldn't run the trains I want to; larger and I would never get anything done.
Enjoy

I built a very large house, so that I could have a very large basement, so that I could have a very large layout. And now I have all of the above.

38' x 46'

[snowey]

mine is in my bedroom. It's N scale, and is 4'x4'. My former HO layout, wich I was forced to dismantle[:(][:(] because of a move to a small apartment, was 4'x8'.

Combined basement and bedroom. Lots of fun.

My N scale layout is in the basement family room.

I made three 3' X 7" modules that bolt together to form a 10' X 14' "L".

The two end modules have an additional 1' bumpout on their sides near the end to allow broader loops.

So, where is your layout located? In a seperate building? In your basement? Do you model in a small bed room? In the attic? (I know this has been done before, but this gives an opportunity for the board newbies to respond.)

Mine is in my bed room at my parents house. 4' 6 " x 10' solid rectangle. If our house had a basement or functional attic, I would lay claim to it. [banghead]
