It's 6ft by 8ft. 1x4 construction, 1/2" plywood top. 30" high, about desk level to make it easy to sit and play comfortably. 5/8" carpet padding. Outdoor carpet.
As you can see, I can also sit in my theater chairs, watch football, and run trains. Man-cave kind of stuff
This is designed to be a fun, light flashing, accessories buzzing kind of layout.
Just to show that you can pack fun into small spaces.
Here are some pics:
How it fits in my place.
That's an MTH Rugged Rails 6-8-6 with Proto 2 at the crossover.
My old 356 station, Gateman, and Ice house in the back
1996 Lionel TMCC SF F3 A&B pulling my (my dad's) original Presidential series passenger cars. Rocket Launcher, Nuclear Power, #397 Coal Loader
Airplane pylon with C47 I adapted. Oil Derrick. These aren't in final position yet. This side is going to be airport and small town. Bascule Bridge
Another view
The outside loop is O48. The inside loop is O36. There will be automatic switching so that each time around the pike, the inner train will take a different route.
Each loop is/will be power by it's own Lionel 180w Powerhouse. I run TMCC and DCS. An old, excellent condition Type V transformer will handle accessories and lights.
Anyway, just wanted to share.
