[?] Have I got this figured right ? On a 4 percent grade, the track would go Up (or down) 4" after traveling 100" ? Seem to me that on a lot of the layouts that I am seeing here (I look at alot of the pictures you guys post) that the inclines are alot steeper that that. What is the steepest incline that HO scale engines (on average) can handle say with a 10 car combination? <br />thanks, [:D] ennout
