    The beauty of a small layout is that you can actually finish it. I'm sure many people would be discouraged if they had only 2 by 4 to work with, but you have made fantastic use of the space. Fun to watch. Thank you for sharing.

      I have a 8 x 4 train table and the last big layout I tried to do I never finished and eventually took it down mid construction because I got tired of looking at it. I have a smaller modular layout now and I love it. I'm about to start the scenery, and I'm much happier with it how it came out.
      I may stick to smaller layouts because they don't feel as complicated and with my last one I was always constantly wanting to change things. OP is right with being able to actually finish them on top of that. Thank you for sharing. That's a very awesome layout.

    After looking and looking, I really think N gauge seems like the Goldilocks, "just right" way to go. Big enough to not look like a cheap toy, but small enough that you can take step back and really get a full view.
    Looks great, InvertLogic! This really helped me decide.

    This layout was extremely similar to what I made for myself when I was in my early teen years (1971-1973). It was also a 2x4 foot setup, with the same folded loop arrangement with the bridge across the middle. I got the idea from a picture I saw in a model railroad magazine of the time. The track layout in this case has a few improvements, like the ability to separate the two loops and run two engines at the same time. And the scenery! This one far, far outclasses what I was able to do in those years.

    This is a beautiful balance of detail and use of space! I built my first N scale layout using a 28"x 80" interior door, and it took me five years to get it anywhere near complete. 2'x 4' is the sweet spot, allowing for good working ovals without being overwhelming when it comes to doing the detail work.

    I really like your layout! It takes the classic "spaghetti bowl" track plan and makes sense of it. In every little vignette you captured the track makes sense doing what it is doing, rising away, passing over, and descending down towards relative to the mainline. That change in elevation and purpose makes the layout so much more interesting.
    Great job!

I appreciate your work and thought you have put into this layout to make it interesting and look great 👍, fine work and finishing to the terrain and great track work.

    This showcases the beauty of N scale, something you cannot do in HO. Every time I see an HO layout I just think "You could have gotten twice the amount of track/trains and scenery if you had gone N". This little layout looks like one of the ones out of the Atlas Nine N scale book (quite an old book but still useful).
