I mounted my G-Scale on the wall above the door in a 12X12 TV room of the house. I used 1X6's and used 1/2 plywood for the corners. I laid my curved sections of track on the playwood and marked for the curverature, then cut it out. I got all four corners from a 4X8 sheet. Once mounted in the corners, I connected them with the 1X6's with one piece board. All supported with wooden shelf brackets approximately every 4 feet. Also used small "L" brackets screwed to the surface of the boards and into the wall studs. Then used screen door trim, soaked in water and bent it to follow the concave curve of the plywood to finish off the front face. <br /> <br />Very simple and cheap. I didn't have a dust problem, these trains are designed to run outside anyway. Didn't need any plexiglass either, I saw the train fine. <br /> <br />dan
