A better sketch of the space would definitely help. Also, is this a separate room, or just available space in the garage? Are you building a partition wall (like Wayne sketched), or is it going to be open?
Where do you live? What's the weather like? Is this a 4-season space, or are you going to be freezing your bits off in the winter? Are you going to operate with the garage door open?
Do you want a realistic looking/operating layout? If so, it'll be hard to do in this space without some hidden trackage.
I'm assuming we're talking HO scale here? Track preferences? Are you going/willing to handlay turnouts, or do you want everything prefab? Code 100? 83? 70?
