Hey, we work with the space we have. Make the layout the best it can be no matter how small. Remember the old cliche " good things come in small packages". I think this is true. 4x8 in o gauge can be a nice creative challenge when it come to track plan, scenery, choice of locos and rolling stock, operation, etc. Don't forget one can also build upward too, adding a partial second deck and elevated trolly or train line. One can become amazingly creative within4x8.
I say "in 4x8 make it great and forget the hate!" ( btw - hate is a very strong word and IMO a poor choice for use in this thread )
