Sorry, have been super busy with outdoor projects (what a vacation, lol) and just popped on and saw your reply. I have a lot of work to get done on the house, so if I don't respond in a couple of days, shoot an email to me.
Are you modeling a specific railroad, or a combination of western railroads?
Now that we know exactly how much room we are working with, it's time to get busy researching your western region in the 1950's. Take a couple of days to do some internet searches on the big western railroads to see what they were hauling. Try to find various pictures of big and small towns along their routes and save pictures and take notes.
I think an oil field, a small farm and a couple of other scenic pieces along the 3 loops will work. I think adding two towns on islands will add interest and provide you with point to point operations so you don't get bored with loops.
