Go original. 1835 originally pulled Blue and Silver cars. Same engine as 385 except for some black trim. sand dome etc.

The track takes up the space. What extra space would the extra cars take.

 The two passenger cars are 13-1/8" each, and with the 385E tender and loco being 25-1/4" long- its too long, almost using 1/2 the track circle. The 385E looks terrific and I'll probably get it eventually, but not best for this application. The 318E (in dark grey) is 13-1/8", so I'm looking to go with that. Seeing an electric instead of a steam locomotive and tender will be pretty cool.
