| | | I am starting one myself. HO scale and I'm in the process of making my own buildings. Getting the ideas together and am searching for a place in the house that will be just right. Shutterbug also wants to start an "O" scale for outside. This should be fun. Simple math equation: Start small + build slowly + make your own stuff as much as you can = Cash saved, affordable set and tons of fun! Here's a link to a forum I am a member of. The folks there can be very helpful. Just watch the language though and don't be afraid to ask questions. Good luck and lots of fun! http://www.zealot....page=the-gauge.com

| | | I have a 4x8 (soon to expand to 8x12) Lionel O Scale layout, bi-level. Includes an oil industry, mountain range, and will have a lumber industry modeled after the WSLC. It's quite easy to lay out the track, buy the necessary cars and engines, and wire the layout. In fact, wiring is the easy part unlike what many people think. For the board in any guage, starting with a 1/2" to 3/4" plywood is a great start. Cheap, firm, and flexable with all materials (glue, nails, screws, carpet, etc). Should you want to reinforce the board, add a 2x4 plank to each side of the layout (two only). I can go into detail with other advice on what you need, but I'll stop for now. If anyone needs any help, feel free to ask on here or PM me directly. -R
