Coal country on a shelf layout?

IS it possible to model coal country on a shelf layout? I'm having the devil's own time getting the look I desire on a shelf layout. Two feet/thirty inches just isn't cutting it for me. Photos would be helpful as well.

I am excited to start sharing what I have been doing with my cubicle, trains, and 'what I had lying around' (hence, WIHLA)! I have started a small blog here:  www.digitaltrainlab.com

A "San Juan Central" for Pacific Narrow Gauge Prototypes

With Blackstone Model's "Diamond Stack" freelance 2-8-0 on the horizon, it seems that having a small HOn3 narrow gauge layout which doesn't feature a Colorado prototype is becoming much more approachable for the average modeller.  Looking back, the canonical entry point for HOn3 railroads was easily Malcom Furlow's San Juan Central.  But even for it's time it was rife with issues: sharp curves, steep grades, and a poorly designed yard (Montrose).
