Thanks! Life dictated that I wouldn't make much progress this summer. I figured it was worth overthinking in the mean time!
I also can remember the reasons my first layout didn't hold my attention as a kid. Having live loads was a major one. I loved the animation I saw at the Carnegie layout and always wanted to emulate that. Throw in a 3D printer, Arduino, and an internet...the possibilities are endless!
