As a kid, my father rigged up a pulley system to lift my 4x8 layout up to the ceiling of the garage, and of course at the time I was too young to recognize what a novel approach this was. The drawback, of course, is the need for eyebolts to hook up to the ropes, but you could be clever and place these inside of buildings that have removable roofs, or in the midst of a forest painted green. I don't have any idea which direction to point you in terms of locating the pulleys and other apparatus that would be required, though I suspect a marine equipment store would be the starting place.
