Around the Room High Shelf Layouts

I have two rooms with ceiling loops. Simply some where to run big or long trains. Bedroom with L brackets mostly along the wall and a couple of posts over book cases. Where long runs between walls I added some square metal tubing to the bottom of the plywood. Have carpet underlay on top and clear plastic edging around. Mostly 0 72 curves. Quiet and runs well for just a couple loops to run trains.

Other room over the main layout below multiple shelf levels, ceiling loops 2 that run to shelf yards along the walls. Used L brackets and loops are 0-120 curves. In centre  of the room have either a 2x4 to layout below for bracing across the middle of the room or Wire hangers from ceiling beams.

Works well for running long trains, and long passenger cars. steamers in an otherwise tight space.

Marty, looks like you took a similar approach as I did on your shelves and brackets. The only difference is along the brick wall in the last photo I started hanging the shelves from the ceiling.  However, I laid cork sheets on top of my shelves and then put GarGraves down on that.  I like the signals and the backdrop.  I need a backdrop, since 2 of my 4 walls are dark Masonite paneling, one is tan brick, and one is white wallboard covering the main duct trough the middle of the house.

Looks like you have more headroom above your doors than I do.
