Well, since I won't be able to work on the layout for awhile, I guess I should actually "plan" a layout. I posted my answers to Lance's questions in my last post.

I think the problem with all of my designs has been that they don't have a clear theme, I love researching railroads so I really want to model a prototype switching area.
I haven't really fallen in love with any railroad yet, so I am open for almost anything as long as it is easily model-able.

If I am doing anything wrong at any-time please don't hesitate to yell at me Wink , I have a bad habit of reading through things quickly 35

Justin,Its always better to plan a layout that fills your needs even if that means designing several and tweaking your last design before you even start construction and after the start of construction be willing to tweak some trackage if needed.

I have planed,tweak and re planed Slate Creek over the past several months until I was completely satisfied with the finish plan and ideas.The latest change is using C55 track instead of C80 track-a better upgrade.
