I'm sorry Mark but I must be having a senior moment as I still can't picture the exact shape of your boards in the 10' x 7' room. How much space have you allowed for the control area and how are you going to reach it? Does the room have a door?
Also, when you say that you are planning on running 8/9 trains all together, I assume that you mean you would like to have that number of trains positioned on the layout at any one time and not actually running. You would need a much bigger area than 10' x 7' in order to create a OO Gauge layout that would enable 8/9 trains to run at the same time.
If we can establish these basics then we might be able to offer some suggestions. Do you have any means of creating and posting a drawing to the forum which shows the shape of your boards?
