Hi Rob,
I have modules in mind that will contain specific places. The biggest limitation (not just on modules, but even in most basements) is space. Richard Wakefield had a model of the Orangeville CPR yard - it was 23 feet long, but still too short. He also did some other locations from Alton to Teeswater. Almost all track plans were modified, some were even mirror images.
You can see Richard's layout (now dismantled) here: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.mcswiz.com/MyLayout/Homepage.asp">http://www.mcswiz.com/MyLayout/Homepage.asp</a><!-- m -->
In my case too, I am planning a bit of historical fiction, and possibly throwing in a bit of time-travel too. So stuff does not have to be exactly as it was/is. In these cases, I want to make it believable, not completely accurate.
