My last house had trains in every room. No 1 scale 1:32 on LGB and Laggas Creek track running everywhere on both floors thanks to the uncanny ability of a Milwaukee Saws-All to cut 7" X 10" holes in a baseboard with ease. The second floor trains were set on a 7:00 am timer for my wake up call. It ran through all the bedrooms, high over the stairwell down the hall and triggered my bell. I had to rearrange the hvac ducts to allow right a way passage through one wall.
The whole 1:32 bit the dust in '94 once I saw 1:48 in the flesh. I gathered the whole 1:32 collection and traded / sold it all for my foray into 2 rail 0 scale. Never forget my first H-8 sitting on the dinning room table. I just knew that another house was in order.
Present layout was supposed to be open space with just an around the wall set up in 2k sq ft basement but now the only walking space left is in the aisles between and around the added on peninsulas and like NWL's mold the trains too are starting to climb up the wall on display racks. Full blown man cave.
