Once again I am very grateful for the replies,
I am beginning to think that my concept just won't work, the idea I have in my head is off a rural chip mill set in the hills of Maine or similar, I don't think I could convincingly portray that image in the space I have to my satisfaction.
I do like the concept of the urban layout on the German site, althrough the last time I spoke German was 16 years ago when I was at school so I can only look at the pictures!
I have always liked the Chicago Terminal RR, I think if shift the concept over to Illinois I could do something similar to that on the link and still keep my modern theme using 50ft box cars and similar stock, this where my Backmann 45 tonnes will prove its worth. I do have soft spot for street running so this concept would work for me.
Perhaps when I move house and have bit more space I can pursue my concept of the rural RR.
