I find this channel a treasure. I am not into model railroad in practice but I recognize a master at something when watching these videos and what a cheerful guy he seems to be! (In my book he should be sponsored by most of the model railroad manufacturers, he get some free stuff, but i mean a salary for his promotion of this hobby.)
Your videos a great. Lot of great advice and knowledge shared by you. Although I have a wish. Can you please create a diorama, applying all your knowledge. I think it will be amazing 🤩
Wonderful your advice and work Martin! I have some woods reserved years ago to make a train shelf, I am going to apply many of your tips, a big greeting from Argentina ...
Martin muy lindo ,muy elegante y en negro me encanto voy a hacerlo .. asi pongo mis locomotoras Marklin en mi cuarto,, Mi gran afectuoso saludo y felicitaciones desde Buenos Aires por este y todos los videos de Marklin sweden que simpre los veo !!
Martin, this was a great video. It was well made and explained in detail how to make the display with all dimensions. These units can also be used to turn a train around. I model steam and sometimes this is needed because the old steam trains might not have a front coupler. I have my own design of this type of shelf, but I am going to have to think about it because your design is simpler to build.
Your videos and tutorials are simply amazing. I've seen a lot of your videos and i never get tired of seen them, again and again. Always learning something new. I'm buiilding a new layout from scratch and you cannot imagine how many times your videos made me change my ideas about my layout. Thank you for sharing with us your skills.

This looks amazing. My trains are a lot longer than that an use a "Nelevator" as my fiddle yard which is a similar concept to this. I am however contemplating building one of these to display my trams from my Newcastle Central Station layout.
In theatre we built flats for stage sets (i kept my school project one and added shelves to it using thin strips of Luan wood) being that its a flat it 3-4ft long and 2 ft high if i remember right. instead of PVA glue we used carpenters glue (yellow) its stronger, but then again we need it for stage use not trains I never got around to getting a big enough plexiglass to use as a sliding door case and i still need to find a place for the monster thing lol. your idea of individual glass units is cool I thought you would have it incorporated into the layout yard and built a motorized elevator type feature for the flat/frame
Perfect timing Martin as I have been looking at how I can display my locos and coaches in fixed formations. I was wondering how you would fix the perspex and its a good solution with the different heights, and with my OCD I would try and find some nice knobs/buttons to pull the shelves. I also bought a pillar drill last year from Lidl so now I have a good project to use it. Thanks so much for all this, it is great inspiration. 🤗
Hello Martin, thanks again for this simple and very effective idea! You surprise me all the time. For the leds, what type of diode did you use? Thanks a lot. And success
Hi there nice video and a really good idea, but why does he not put a stop boom at the end so the train can not slide over the edge, it amazes me, I will do that when I have to build it. but otherwise good idea as roll on roll of ferry
Nice idea. I guess gluing the shelves to the rear panel helps prevent them sagging over time and the perspez will add some strength but there might be a max train length eg 1200mm.
I like what you did, but I have a few questions. First of all how thick was the polycarbonate glass? Also I'm not entirely certain why you needed the screws. And finally I'd like to know more about your setup to mount the shelf for loading the train off your set, I wasn't quite sure how you attached it so it was secure and stable.
This might be a totally unreasonable suggestion. But bare with me. What about having a double walled box with a semi reflective background. Then have a led strip light up the background when you need to see. Then having 3 or 4 boxes next to each other with swiches between, making it possible to drive in and out of the cases.
Excellent subject. May I suggest to not use a saw and instead scatch the polycarbonat a few times. After that one can break it very neatly on the edge of a table. The advantages are a very clean, fast and straight cut. On th other hand, if you didn't scratch deep enough the cut may break.
I suppose you could permanently attach a bracket to the wall, put the trains on horizontal shelves that moved up & down the wall & it would be an elevator of sorts with the other trains displayed over one point of a layout, then you could park your rolling stock on a shelf, electrically or hydraulically elevate up to the next level and you wouldn't have to manually move the shelf to a different area of your room and risk dumping those units out one end or the other as one of your loving pets 🐕🐈🦄🐖try to trip you ... I suppose 🤔🤫🧐
You start this Video in a strange order.. Start by looking at the lengt of the train you neat to store... then find a trek that fits... THEN you make the Vitrine to match..
I love how in every video he starts is with an enthusiastic HELLOOOOOOOOO :D
My wife feels the same way!
Very timely. I want to make one to house all my Railway Operating Division locomotives for exhibitions
Everytime when Martin loads up a new video i‘m thinking:“ mh what is this genius doing again?!“ amd sure i won’t get disappointed 😂👍🏼
very good idea, functional and nice! congratulations and thanks for sharing!

Doesn't matter what the subject is, just glad to have a new Marklin of Sweden video!
Now I know what my next woodworking project is in my garage.
I love this channel. Wish i had a train shop in my town
Many thanks for your share, and enjoy your trains !
Greetings from France
Excellent Martin! Brilliant idea!👏👏👏👏
Greetings from South Africa once again....thanks Martin, i love this channel....
Outstanding work 👍 Thanks for sharing the build.
Your videos a great.
Lot of great advice and knowledge shared by you.
Although I have a wish.
Can you please create a diorama, applying all your knowledge.
I think it will be amazing 🤩
Martin, as always you surprise us with a simple and practical idea. thanks and greetings from Spain
Beautiful work. Thankyou.
a good idea to present the model protected from dust without having to touch it. thanks
Brilliant! This is a great way to build a functional display. I'm going to adapt this to display N scale equipment. Thanks for sharing.
Hello
Can you maybe show us martinstown by night?
I am a big fan
Greetings from Switzerland
That is an excellent idea. Definitely food for thought.
Wonderful your advice and work Martin! I have some woods reserved years ago to make a train shelf, I am going to apply many of your tips, a big greeting from Argentina ...
Very nicely done and explained ! Your creativity is amazing, keep going ! Best regards from Hamburg
Martin muy lindo ,muy elegante y en negro me encanto voy a hacerlo .. asi pongo mis locomotoras Marklin en mi cuarto,,
Mi gran afectuoso saludo y felicitaciones desde Buenos Aires por este y todos los videos de Marklin sweden que simpre los veo !!
That is a great idea and it looks very nice too! You did a really good job of making it. Thanks for sharing this.

This is an excellent video. Everyone should see this!
What a great display!
Looks very nice. Thnx for the video

Nice video again. When you add track power to the rails, you also can illuminate the interior lightning of the wagons and locos.
i assume this is only applicable to digital right? otherwise engines would run on the locos
Soooooo simple but soooooooo good! 👍
Super !
An excellent tutorial, laying out all the steps of construction in a calm, clear way. Thanks and Cheers from Wisconsin.
Good job, very practical.👍👍
Nice tutorial!
Excellent work
fantastic idea mate
Cool idea. Thanks for sharing and greeting from Canada
Excellent! Thank you 🙏

Muy clara la explicación Martin.
Gracias
Perfekte Idee. Toll gemacht könnte man sicher auch ein Stück länger machen.
Nice video! Väldigt bra filmat och bra video.
klasse Video. Daumen hoch. Liebe Grüße aus Norddeutschland

Trevlig nationaldag 🇸🇪👍🏻
Nice idea. I guess gluing the shelves to the rear panel helps prevent them sagging over time and the perspez will add some strength but there might be a max train length eg 1200mm.
You could split the train and put one half above the other
Eine super Idee. Klasse!!!! Respekt👍Grüße nach Schweden
Great Martin!
Nice👍!
Martin🤗🤗🤗🤗😍
Undoubtedly in Sweden you don't have the high lumber prices that we have here in the US.
Well, Prices have increased with 50% last month 😬

Great stuff. Precis vad jag behöver. Tack! Bara: furu är ”pine” (inte spruce) på engelska 👍🤩
Merci 🇨🇵😊😊😊😊❤️❤️👍👍👍👍
Idea formidabile N1👏👏👏👏

How you'll get the trains out of the display? Looks quite fiddly to get the hand on it…
Great video but whats with the bee gees era silk shirt!) getting ready for mid summer??
Shove in, sure. Now show how you get them out?
are there any cheap märklin trains that I can buy for my märklin railway
