You live in Pennsylvania so train shows and train club meets should be available. These are less expensive to by track and switches, cars engines etc. and you may meet some local guys willing to help and wanting to unload stuff. O27 tubular is much cheaper than other track and Marx metal frog switches can be had for $10 a pair or cheaper. Also you can get more track in a smaller space with O27.
Check out my post on building a inexpensive 027 layout with homemade turntable.

Thanks Charlie! Your layout is pretty awesome, I think I'll look to your layout for some inspiration. Since your name is Choo Choo Charlie I was wondering if your trains ran on Good And Plenties
