Many options for displaying trains on shelves exist, from home-made to adapted furniture to purpose-made aluminum shelving. All of these options work pretty well for trains out of their boxes and lined up as if on tacks (or even at other angles).
I am looking to display some sets in their boxes, however, and I have rarely seen methods for doing so. Do you display any sets in such a manner? Have you seen any such displays? Does anyone have any brilliant ideas about how to do so economically both I terms if cost and of vertical and horizontal real estate?
I have thought about adapting some modular book shelf units, but the method strikes me as inefficient. of course, there may not BE an efficient method.
What do you think?
