There may be better choices in about the same 1’X6’ space, depending on your interests. The grade is very steep and the configuration of tracks is a bit limiting - for example, as drawn you’d need two locos to switch it (as the originator used). The upside is that one could build it quickly.

Here’s a variation that requires a little more room but does have a run around at both ends http://www.nmra.org/beginner/vandalia.html
