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.
It kinda depends on how much track and how many turnouts you try to put into the scene. You can model a simple track plan in 5 foot x 15" area.
Say you wanted to model this chip mill (Ackerman Chip Mill, 34 Hunt Road. Ackerman, MS): http://binged.it/y75ALR
It basically has two longish parallel spurs, and that's it. Could be modeled e.g like this:
