New layout looks to be more functional. You have a decent size room, one I hope to have in my next location. One of the most efficient uses of space I have learned is an around the walls layout with a peninsula. You will need a duck under or lift bridge but this brings everything within arms reach. I will try to find an example from the other train magazine from back in 2010. That room size was 12 x 12 but the plan can be stretched and you can fill in the blanks. Hopefully Ken O scale will chime in on this thread, he is the master of layout design on this forum.
