Each time I've started and finished/torn down a layout I learn something important. The most important lesson so far is, "a man needs to know his limitations." Big ain't always the way to go.
I have the 3rd round of benchwork finished. I took my time and planned it as modular construction this time. I have 12'x2' ready to start putting templates down.
Here's where I'm stuck. I have plenty of HO stuff and I also have a fair amount of On30. I know in my current space I could either have a decent amount of HO operation or a several industry 0n30 switching layout.
HO has a lot of pros, but for the size with my aging eyes. On30 is easier on the eyes, but there isn't a lot of inexpensive structure kits and the benchwork size has its limits.
I know if I get bored I can put either on the track and play around.
I'm open to suggestions or feedback.
