I bought my subscription to this site in hopes of finding useful information and links but it seems that everything requires more money!. I want to build in N gauge. I plan on a 2′ x 3-4′ space. I want a canyon look with mountains, farmland, waterfall, river, bridge and tunnels. I know this is an ambitious build for a newbie but I have faith in myself. I wish there was more info on inclines, curve radius, power requirements for everything, what can you “get away with”, etc. Yes I’m more interested in the creation of the miniature scenario but I also love trains and want this as realistic as possible. Advice?

Well, in the intervening three years, I’m sure you’ve come up with at least one solution, if not several. For others in a similar situation, adding on to O-“Gauge”, (not O-“Scale”), I would suggest you look into GarGraves track. The center rail is black and the ties are much more realistic. You can buy switches in different configurations & etcetera. Happy “High Railing”.

The program you’re offering is just what I need.
