STACKED SWITCHING ON LAJ LAYOUT

All you would need is a few wooden or metal supports on the layout - cutout - to support the individual cartridges (shelves) and you could store the shelves under the layout within easy reach....

The point of having the stacked leads (shelves, modules) is for the cars to stay on them & to stay put w/o any handling. Learned from my module club days the less handling the better!

The "E" is the shape of the whole layout & has nothing to do w/ the stacked leads other than being against the middle leg of the E.
