Train shelving

Classic Toy Trains Forum

At the Allentown, PA Train show there is a vendor that has metal train display frames. Does anyone know how that is?

I am looking for some type of shelving with a protective cover such as a clear plastic cover that can be easily removed to access the train.

I have seen wood products and thought of making something myself but wonder if something is out there that is reasonably priced and available.

Glen Snyder Display Systems of Buffalo (Oak Street, I think) on the east coast, RailRax on the west coast, have the extruded aluminum shelving.

Here are some pictures with the Glenn Snyder shelves. They are not exactly what you are looking for but they are nice because they are not the first thing you see. The trains are. They are very sturdy and go up easily. They hold a lot of weight and look good. They are 6 feet long and can be combined for greater lengths. Each section costs $15.

2 sections together for a 12’ length

Here is a shelf close up

I have the Glenn Snyder shelves they work real well. I want my trains on display not my shelves. they come in 6’ lenghts or custom sizes. I bought a bunch of the for “o” gauge and plan to buy the standard gauge size. They went up in a jiffy. Went and picked them up myself at his warehouse about 20 min. away and saved a bunch on the shipping.[;)]

Thanks for the information. I will look into both. Again thanks for the help.
