I've made some progress with the baseboards.
As you can see from the photos I've been playing with running boards around the room, or back to an 8x4 slab. It's clear from this that around the room is the way to go as there is so much more space, I can have wider and more realistic curves etc.
I've now got to make a couple more boards, I'm thinking 2 4x2 on the left hand side, then a 2x4 across the top, some 4x1 (or 4 x 1.5) down the right hand side, and a 2x4 across the bottom. Should make a 10x5 (or thereabouts) layout.
Still going to be based on a double oval, but scope for some crossovers and multiple sidings/fiddle yard in the narrow section on the right hand side, with a station scene on the left. I'm still having trouble getting some track planning software, but I've now got flexible track so I might just have a play and see where it leads!
