Model train shelf around room.

Shelf type layouts to run around a room perimeter. 4 3 out of 5 stars 66. If you plan it out you can have a narrow shelf on one side of the room with the wider one on the opposite side. Attach your track shelf to the cleat be sure to drill pilot holes first since you re going to be attaching so close to the edge of the track shelf.

Also consider varying the width where you only have single track running through the country 8 inches is plenty where there are sidings or buildings make it wider. The ho train ran around the room successfully without any problems. I have enough space to have 2 or three locos on the layout alternating them around the room. I have looked at dcc and it is a viable next step to upgrade the layout.

I ve had several people ask about constructing a shelf layout or ceiling platform to run trains around a room. If anyone out there has got such a layout i m sure readers would like to see a photo and hear about what you have constructed. Even though the layout is limited to a main line and a siding i can only run one locomotive at a time. See the other 3 videos in this series for project introduction and the building of the components.

Diy shelving option run the track around the entire perimeter of the room by first measuring each wall to determine how much shelf space you need.
