Idea! Thoughts?

I have recently purchased a LEGO train set because at 75% off you can't say
no.  Trouble is, I am not a Townie, I prefer Space and Castle.  I have no
plans at the moment to convert the thing into a Hogwarts Express 'cause LEGO
will likely do it soon (i.e. not inspired yet).  So how can I work a train
with track into Space?  Here's my idea, has anyone tried it?  What if I were
to incorporate a railway platform into my long planned Space-Battleship as a
docking bay ferry and launch delivery system?  I hope to make the platform
average baseplate size so I can park a decent sized ship on it, and I would
have to balance the outer edges with rolling wheels so it don't tip or snag.
Granted the scale required to do this means that you may not see a picture
or actual model for a year, but I think this can be done by me on some
level.  Has anyone run into problems or had success with a similar idea?
Thought I'd ask before I get deep in ABS...
Best wishes,
Aaron
