Paul,

I've used CadRail for years to design N, HO and S scale layouts (the 
scale that you work at is not really important to the program). Being a 
pretty complete 2D CAD package I've also used it for building model 
rolling stock, structures, and a couple pieces of 1:1 scale furniture. 
However, if you are limited to a 30" v 80" space the cost in money and 
time learning CadRail (or any real CAD program) does not seem worth it.
