I started with a 4 x8 layout ,34" legs. Then i added 1/4 x 12" high plexiglass <br />around the perimeter of the board. I cut a 4' x 8' pc. of plexiglass in half,so that <br />they act as a cover for the area.My three power packs are located in it. Then i added another 4 x 8' board,this does not have a plastic cover. What it does have is a post at both ends, and a wire that connects the two. When it is going to rain <br />i drop a 10'x20' vinyl cover (side curtain of a car port) and bunji chord it down. <br />This has been very succesfull,i have never witnessed any moisture after a rain. <br />You always hear about UV rays affecting track, i have four loops. One loop is bachmann,another is life-like, then atlas(true track) and finally flexible track. <br />There has never been any affect on any of these tracks. So now i have a 4 x 16' <br />layout,that is weather resistant. Lately i added a 12" wide board that is 18' long, <br />double track that connects to my original layout,who knows what is coming next.
