Hey Guys and Gals, <br /> I need to know where I can find out the best way to cross an outward opening doorway with my two shelf new layout. My area is 5'x 58' with a 8'x 7' bump out midtrack on one side. I intend to have towns at each end and industry along the way. I have aquired a rotory dumper model from Walthers and the wood chip cars to dump salt tablets into our water softner (treatment plant) from the mines (40 lb bag of tablets). <br /> I am disabled but not in a wheelchair. Ducking under a lower track is out of the question, so I need a way to move at least two main track rails out of the way and return them to working position. <br /> I know I have seen articles adressing this situation in the mag, but don't have all the issues and need some helping hands for this matter. I gotta get some of this 600 feet of flextrack laid so I can run some trains while the rest of the layout progresses. Thank goodness the wife is into scenery. I just wanna run some trains. We do not have a bunch of options as far as hobby shops down here in the Ozarks, but I have been in construction during almost all of my working life and have learned how to make due. <br /> Thank you, <br />Eric
