Hi, <br />i have just recently rediscovered an interest in model railoading and dug up my dads old HO trains and track...also found two kalmbach books, <i>scenery for model railroading</i> and the <i>practical guide to HO model railroading</i>. Im thinking about putting together a layout on maybe an 4x8 plywood board, with a simple track layout, (oval with a few spurs/staging tracks and some simple screen/plaster scenery, and am wondering if there is advice to give to someone who knows nearly nothing of the workings of a railroad, or model railroad for that matter, like what to or not to buy, is 4x8 too big for a beginning project, and so on...sorry for the broad question, but i know almost nothing about all this so any help is greatly appreciated[:)].
