I find 8' is the maximum width of a layout, as you can only reach in by 4', but then there is mainly town in the centre of the layout. Also I like to have several trains running at once, it's nice to sit back and watch them. You can only have two or (...) (22 years ago, 27-Apr-02, to lugnet.trains)
