Not necessarily just large layouts. ?I built a 4x6 HO layout with a rather short yard ending under a plate girder highway bridge with a 4x6 inch mirror beneath.? Didn't look like a train backing into cars though, it looked like 2 trains backing into each other, so keep the mirror small, and make sure mirrors are placed where you can't see your face in them.

I own the great book on John Allen's famous layout. He successfully

This includes the use of mirrors. Some of these principles were later
adopted by George Sellios. However, these techniques rather work for
very big layouts.
