Thanks for the advice guys. Think I'll go with the wire reverse link on my switches and can the tunnel. Have no place to start other than a curve. I'm using plan #39 in the 101 plans book (Denver Northwestern) on a 5x10 foam board table. After all of my track has been laid, run and tested I will begin my elevations using the cookie cutter method. Originally thought about reversing the plan's elevations with a tunnel on the branchline side but now maybe I'll use trestles. More dramatic. <br /> <br />I'm doing the layout in DC (gasp!) since I am in possession of several (around 7) vintage brass steam locos passed down from my Dad. They are dated 1954 thru 1961 (according to the paperwork in the boxes). Problem is to find a way to get them running again. They have been in the Great Service Yard in the Sky for a while. They do not run, just sit on the track and look at you waiting [:D] Suggestions other than the Kalmbach Care and Maintenance book? <br /> <br />Again, thanks for your help on this little problem. Hope to hear fron y'all soon! <br /> <br />Joe
