Before I moved to Seattle, I was working on a 12' x 12' two-level N scale set that focused on switching operations.

Sounds like your collection exceeds mine. I'd like to have a collection your size, but O-Gauge is too expensive. I looked up the price of an N-Scale Big Boy- About $25. In O-Gauge the Big Boy fetches about $1,800... Although I'm fine with just my DASH-9. I focus on cars... you said you have a few dozen? I envy that... I have 4 O-Gauge cars and approximately 7 O-27 cars. O-27 has the same sized trucks as O-Gauge, but O-Gauge is larger, and more detailed. I try to stick with BNSF and Burlington Northern cars now, although I don't mind my few Santa-Fe cars. I try to stick with the common rail line. I don't like my Conrail tank car... It looks ugly with the DASH-9! baby blue + orange =
