Paying more attention to my room I got tired of having my collection of models placed on the floor in the open; lined up against the wall. It looked fine at first, though later it started to look tacky to me; having trucks just about in a victorian styled room. This way it looks neater, yet more interesting; and making power lines added a more realsitc flavor to the scene I was going for - a station.
The lights are controlled by a railroad transformer that's plugged into the wall; while electricity flows from it to the cables. It is safe the way I built it. The lights can be adjusted as dim or as bright as I want, and can stay on all night and day as they do. Best part is in the end the station hardly took up much space.
During The Construction of the New Garage
Over time, I kept buying trucks and trailers and needed more space; so I built two more levels. I needed to put trucks at the top while building it so the pillars wouldn't move while I was tightening the electric wires. The power lines also needed to be moved. These are some before and after pictures.
Complete
After all that I gained six free parking spaces.
