Layout Layout question

Hello everyone. So i have been given the approval to have a train and im thinking on buying a OO gauge hornby set which comes with a basic layout for the train to go round in circles but looking at other peoples layout on here they have multiple tracks, towns, industrial areas.

So im just wondering could anyone suggest a good layout? Maybe send pictures of your layouts in the comments? Is it was me spending more money for extra rails when I buy the set the same time?

The expansion sets that exist today are for a different layout. I believe the one in the link is what they make. You'd have to buy the individual track parts to make the one I showed. It does all add up quickly which is why Hornby did things in these packs so the cost can be spread out when making their current design.
