The Shunting Ledge

Hello,
Here's a little Z scale Inglenook-type shunting layout which I finished building recently. The baseboard is an Ikea Mosslanda picture ledge which is 115 cm long and allows the layout to be 10 cm deep and about 6 cm high. A second identical picture ledge serves as a cover.
The track is from Rokuhan and the buildings (some modified) from Kibri, Artitec and Archistories. Figures and accessories are from Preiser, Archistories (fences), Scalescenes (shipping containers), Yellow Dwarf, Luetke, Artitec, HoS and a few others.

That looks very nice and well detailed, especially considering it is Z scale. Nice to see European type layout since it brings back the fond memories of my early teen years.

Thanks! And here’s a little video showing (DC controlled) shunting operations on this layout.
