There is a casino in my area that is train themed. They have LGB trains hanging all over the casino, above bars and gaming areas. They use clear lexan or plexiglass type material that is just wider than the track. Most are an oval of various sizes and the lexan follows the shape of the oval, not a big square, in other words. They are suspended by very thin cables with brass buttons on the bottom of the glass at the end of the cables.

Mostly all you see is the trains. Very effective.

Good luck.
