Or, in my case, HO. - my little "plank" measures 4'6" x 14" approximately. It still manages to give me a lot of enjoyment. (When it's working that is!)

Indeed - this is the eventual plan with mine, to extend what is basically a factory yard into a small branch terminus and beyond. Having said that I haven't fully decided on how far to extend or the eventual shape, it could well be L or U, it just depends.
