    Shouldn’t have been raised above the rest of the floor. Now you’ve got to use a relatively skinny tree and you can’t put a train or tree skirt around it.

      Put the tree relatively far forward, cover the step with a nice skirt, then put your train along the front edge of the step with smaller presents below it and larger ones behind it.

      The step makes the tree and the pile of stuff under look bigger than they are and makes a nice raised platform for the train to run along.

        Okay, I did the math (or rather, found an online calculator to do the math for me) and, assuming a tread depth of 10" and therefore a platform radius of 60", you could fit a 48" diameter train track on it. Not great, not terrible for O-scale, but barely big enough for the most cramped G-scale circle (which might’ve otherwise been preferred to stay in proportion with a tall tree in the high-ceilinged room).

      One of the luxuries I afford myself is more than one Christmas tree.

      They smell great.

      My gremlin ass cats LOVE THEM.

      And blinken lights.

      I recommend you too splurge if you can.

      I’d have a tree here for display and (it’s only) smellz.
