True, one would not see the top of the trains and the scenery, as I tried to point out, would have to have a vertical element since you would not be seeing the base of it. <br /> <br />Here's an unpainted static model that I set on a shelf at 6'-10 1/2" with some cardboard 4" behind it. [img]http://www.muddycreekrr.com/images/misc/bookshelf_train.jpg[/img] <br />The photo was taken with the camera at my eye-level. (I'm 5'-9") If having a layout meant putting it at this height, I would live with the limitation. <br /> <br />Alternative locations almost certainly would be preferable but jflessne didn't ask for alternatives or indicate aternatives were possible, so I saw no need to second-guess him and simply tried to offer some positive suggestions for his scenario instead. <br /> <br />If building a layout in unusual places means having a layout of some kind vs having nothing, I would always opt to encourage building it despite the obstacles. <br /> <br />Wayne <br /> <br />Added: Are you still with us jflessne ? Any thoughts?
