I'm looking for a good model railroad design service to help me with
with a design for a new layout. I'd rather not learn everything  "the
hard way", which can be expensive and time consuming. And, I'd rather
concentrate on building and operating as soon as I could.
Anyone out there had a good experience and would be willing to make a
recommendation? Thanks much

Jim,
Check out this site:

There is a good example of some of their ideas illustrated in their
project shortline layout "The Heart of Georgia RR" (HOGRR).

They also have a Yahoo Group for the layout at:
