    your grandfather would be very proud of your work you made, even when he's no longer here, he will always be with you no matter what.

    Percy: What's that?
    James: The Shelf Railway. It's very dangerous up there.
    Percy: (worried) I hope I don't fall off!
    Troublesome Tanker: (Snickers)
    By the way, fence posts would be a good idea; keeping the engines from falling, and adding some extra scenery!

    If you truely want a Season 2 Percy, his left cylinder has to wobble up and down and his centre lamp iron has to have just a big glue blob.

    There is/was actually a little fast food joint in my state that has a shelf layout. It was one of, if not THE coolest places I have ever been. Haven't been there in over ten years, so I hope it is still there.

  • @lukechristmas3951
    @lukechristmas3951 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Very honorable of you to do this memory of your grandfather! I'd like to do a self layout someday, or at least try to. The hanging track makes me think of Bulldog which means someone should make a G Scale Falcon and Duke just because! Most of the G Scale engine's are narrow gauge anyway. And I noticed a shower curtain under the track during Percy's running session. I guess this gives a new meaning to "Dirty Percy."

    You could put a siding above the door where the tracks turn to avoid the curtain. You put a switch above the door and the siding would be up against the wall that continues to the curtain.

    A wonderful idea. I hope to make a garden railway of my own in the future. But with the Thomas G Scale trains being harder to find in the UK plus not knowing if my family is planning to move house, makes it hard knowing if I should wait. Don't want to make plans and dig up the garden only to move in the future. Oh well one day...Maybe next year~

Do you have any suggestions/advice on building a ceiling layout like this? I might want to do something like that so that the O stuff has something to run on.
