I am in the same boat as most people planning a layout. I am asking myself the question: I don't have a basement or dedicated room for a layout so where do I put my trains? I am looking at putting shelves around my room that is 15 1/2' X by 12 1/2 '. Since there is furniture in this room and my computer I am thinking that placing the shelves near the celing just over the top of the doorway would be the easiest way to go. Has anybody tried this? The only problems that I can think of is how to take care of derailments since I am 5'1 and the shelves would be about 7 ' high and how to get my layout around a window where the curtains are nearly all the way to the ceiling. Anyone have ideas of how to do this or other ideas on a layout that is overhead? <br /> <br />Thanks, <br /> <br />Marc
