Thank you, George! Thank you, JD!!
I am not intending the diorama to be part of the layout. I want to be able to carry it easily out the door to the adjacent patio for daylight photography. Also, I’m trying some scenic effects since I haven’t built scenery for many years. I have the diorama resting on the first two wall brackets for the layout. I decided to build the layout higher so someone can look through the window from the laundry onto the layout easier. I will raise the brackets about 6 inches to match this part of the layout.
