My plan to build a layout on top of a half height wall in my living room.
The half wall is in the shape of an “L” in plan view 7.5 feet x 5.5. feet with the long leg against a full height wall, flush on the inside of the “L” and a perpendicular wall forming a closet on the other side.
My initial plan is to use a tight four foot radius at the corner and a turnout to extend the track an additional 8 feet along the full height wall.
Where the half wall meets the full wall I plan to build a two bay front wall of an engine house, one bay being false, the other allowing the train to enter with a partial engine house structure along the eight foot section to park the unit inside away from the little fingers that come to visit.
I am hoping to get any suggestions for the talent on this site either in style or substance to complete something worthy of front and center display in my home.
