I have been doing quite a bit of reading in preparation for building my first layout. One thing I have noticed is that layout height seems to vary a lot. But I don't think I have ever seen anyone put a mainline run just above the door casing in a room. That would make for a nice long run without having a bridge or duck-under, but I know that the viewing angle is not the best (perhaps a raised floor in the isles would correct that). Are there other reasons for not utilizing the space around the top of the room, or is it just considered not professional?
