I was of the same camp designing huge railroads 7-8' wide with a dog bone style design. I'm back to the drawing board with around the walls design. 3' depth, with a lift out bridge and possibly a wider engine service area off the around the walls design. For straight mailine action 3' wide allows for plenty of action for mainline tracks including yards and sidings etc. As I get older crawling over or under huge peninsulas is not for me.
