The room size is 5m by 4.5m but 1m by 4.5m is a walkthrough from the garage to the house. At least the back wall is used for shelves.
I decided to put in cupboards and counter tops. The layout will go in above that - floor height of layout about 1.2m - 1.3m.

Holy crap. All of that just to fit a granny in ?
It looks like the end result of one of those US home makeover TV programs, but it looks awesome.
I may just need to visit again, to see if I can still recognize the place ..........
Cheers,
Steve

So, I had 3 more shelves to put up of which 2 went in the train room and the other in my new study (which almost was the train room - luckily I got out of that one...)

I managed to fill the one little shelf in minutes...
I wonder what to do with the other 230 locomotives...
