[quote]QUOTE: <br />I don't know if you're referring to my article on the Alameda Belt Line in <i>MRP </i>2005...[/quote] <br /> <br />Byron, yes it is! Thanks for that. I did consider building it, but didn't feel a "connection" to Alameda. It was all very good and worthwhile, but I wanted to be able to use my rolling stock and locos to represent the local shortline (eastern Canada) should I ever get that deep into the hobby. The jigsaw industries, car float and other parts were inspirational and I may be using them down the road. <br /> <br />[quote]QUOTE: ...the hinges should be mounted above the railhead -- just so that the rails don't bind when folding it over.[/quote] <br /> <br />To be honest, I hadn't looked that closely at the hinge position, but now that you mention it, if I hadn't scrutinised it more closely (and I hope I would have had I chose to build it) I may have messed up as well! <br /> <br />Again, great article as it pushed me off the fence and really got me thinking about getting into the hobby. <br /> <br />Rob <br /> <br />
