Years ago my wife and my dad encouraged me to start up another layout. Before my wife could change her mind I built a 12' x 6' table with a 2' x 8' open area in the middle. Mind thought was get it built and claim the square footage. I did not have much time to plan out the track. Any way long story short, I have added on three extensions and reworked the track several times. It is almost there. Anyway I had an extension that was just begging to be widend so I could add more tracks. I am thinking a baggage express area with 2-3 tracks. I am trying to decide how to tie them into the layout. I can branch it off of my passenger terminal station which has 8 tracks. I could break it off of the mainline. Or I could simply model the tracks and supporting structures as a diarama, or wire it up as a stand alone, but small point to point. Think 8' long with a minimum width of 6" and a maximum width of 12".
My guess is wire it up. I am not into operations, I have a thing for baggage and express cars so they will mostly sit "being loaded or unloaded".
What do you think and or what have you done?
