What Hardware is needed for a layout

Some things I have under mine are:

• Plastic two hole straps (different sizes) to route wiring through and hold it up.
• MTH terminal blocks for DCS star wiring
• Small power supplies for lighting
• Relays
• Power supply and LED strip lights for illumination under the layout
• Misc terminal strips for combining switches, lights, etc.
• Zip ties for bundling wires

I'm probably missing a few things, but that's all that comes to mind right now.

I have a transformer cart on wheels that can be rolled under the layout. It has all my track power supplies, DCS system and Legacy system so I can roll it out for access to everything. It's much easier access for DCS and Legacy updates and things like that.

Bridle rings to route wires under the table.

For ease, I use small brass eyelets screwed into the under side of the layout and then suspend shower curtain hooks from them that can be opened and closed to carry my wire runs

Thank you for the input gentlemen. Shower hooks, neat!

One of the most critical decisions should be to use different colors of wires. Don't save money here. There are 12 different colors available. This makes trouble shooting much easier.
