   While it is not a "plan book" per se, John Armstrong's TRACK PLANNING
FOR REALISTIC OPERATION (paperback, Kalmbach) is a classic on the subject.
I don't have my copy in front of me, but if memory serves the book does
include at least one shelf type layout as an example.  With Armstrong's
advice, you ought to be able to design at least as good a layout as you will
find published in a plan book.
   I believe the book is still in print; it ought to be available at most
hobby shops.
