gips, there are some good plans on both the Atlas and Kato sites. Even if you don't use the plans in their whole form, there are some great starting points there.
Gips: Look at the book "101 Trackplans for Model Railroaders" by Linn Wescott. I am positive you can find a trackplan that you could modify to suit your room dimensions.
Gips, We've got a ton of designs over at LayoutDepot.com... maybe you can find something there that will inspire or help you. Peter
