This will be my first track layout-so I know NOTHING! I'm putting up three rail Lionel tubular track running the perimeter of a 11' x 15' room. It will be 7' off the ground up against the wall. I'm running a MTH 2-8-4 Berkshire Steam locomotive using O72 curves (about to order from Menards), the rest straights. Questions I have that first come to mind;
- How far/close to the wall should the track be?
- Transformer? I have mine from childhood (1970's) that ran my standard Lionel train.
- What obvious issues am I overlooking/going to run into?
