I will echo what Ken stated. With the quality scale sized ties out there you can't go wrong. It sounds as though you have seen what you wish to model in person, but if not I would suggest that as well if it's with in your schedule and such. Are you going to model that line 100% or are you after just the basic "look" of it? Best advise I have is to take it slow. Hand laying for me is by far the most rewarding thing...why? Because I am literally building my railroad...my way, and it looks like I want it to....it's awesome...switches are a challenge at first but after you do a few you will gain confidence and feel much better about attacking the curved turnouts you will need. I am sure you will produce some fine track work.
