Stein, I meant I wanted to be able to move the layout fairly easily if I ever needed to, for example if I were going to move out or just move it to a different room.
Mike, I am thinking about making the layout a 4x6, it would be easier for a beginner to build, as it requires less benchwork construction than a 40"x56" (Less cuts).
I am currently thinking about what kind of track I should go with, should I go with regular snap-track or track with a molded on road-bed. I was thinking the kind with molded roadbed would be easier for a beginner, Atlas true-track would be good since the builder could choose to remove the track from the roadbed if they want.
I also started a thread at the Model Railroad Hobbyist forum: http://model-railroad-hobbyist.com/node/8568
