When I decided to build a layout in my basement there were some things that I wanted it like I wanted it to be built in about 8 sections for two different reasons. #1 so if I ever decide to move from here I wanted it to be in seven or eight sizes that would fit out of my basement door. Also so that it would not be around the wall of my basement so when I move I will not have to use a chainsaw to remove it. #2 If I wanted to add onto my layout it would be just easy to add a new section as I just recently did to make room inside of the layout for friends who may come over. If I really want to I can remove a section and build another one just the same size but different scenery. My layout is semi-modular, but only to fit my building style not to the NMRA I also left two sidings on areas of my layout that appeared to have room in that area to add on at some point later on if I decided to. Is your layout built with similar things to be made easy to upgrade or move or is yours built to be Destroyed upon moving? What things have you done to make your future expandings much easier?
