    Need help for very small n scale layout

    What is the absolute smallest n scale layout that i could build. If it is possible i would like to do something more that just a single loop. I am wanting to build a layout really bad but i dont have the room to put it. thanks

    Will this be enough room?

    i'm not asking for you guys to build my layout i just need ideas. I've been drawing it out on paper and so far i have a mainline track that will run around the very outer edge of the layout and a small yard with 4 sidings. and i quit becuase i was kind of stumped on what to do next.

    That sounds like a good idea with the books except i kind of want to build it out of my imagination instead of copy it from another layout. In my opinion that would take some of the fun out of building it.

    Will this be enough room?

    I have decided to lift my bed up so i can have a better layout, i am going to raise it up to where the bottom will be at 16" so i will have 1' of clearence on top of the layout for building and scenery. I would also like to have some elevation chage if possible, would that be possible.

    I have another problem,lol. I would like to use some scenery but if i brace the bottom of a 1/2" sheet of plywood with 2"x4's, nothing on the layout will be able to be higher that 4.5 inches since i am storing it under my bed? Is there any buildings or anything that will fit?

    Will this be enough room?

    since i am working on a small budget i think i will just have all of my sidings insulated and have a switchboard where i can turn them on or off and have a several trains but just run one at a time. How does that sound? Also does anyone have any trackplan ideas?

    Another Question, what method of control should i use. The ones i know of are dc,dcc, and block detection. Are there any more out there and what would be the best for me?

    Will this be enough room?

    I'm going to run it on the floor beside the bed. The lowest point on the bed is 8 3/4 inches so nothing can be taller that 8 (to be safe). Also, what thickness plywood should i buy and how much will it be?

    Will this be enough room?

    Will a 73"x48" sheet of plywood be big enough to build a n-scale layout on. If so how complex can i get with it. I cant go any bigger because i am building it so i can slide it under my bed when i am not using it, and that is all i will be able to slide under the bed. thanks
