Completed Model Railroads are ready for delivery and installation. We offer services from delivery only to complete onsite installation, hookup and testing. Smaller freestanding layouts may only require crating prior to shipping. Larger layouts and layouts with installed scenery and structures require special handling which may include crating with vibration dampers or cushion tread casters.
Once the layout is onsite you may elect to do the installation yourself. Again, with large complex railroads we prefer to complete the installation, hookup and testing. When the layout is installed by Model Scenery and Structure time is set aside to familiarize you with the operation of the layout and any adjustment or programming details leaving you with an turnkey Model Railroad ready to run trains and enjoy!
