I am kind of new to Model Railroading. I had a basic plywood table as a kid but now want to build a layout that isn't just a flat piece of plywood with a hill or two and raised track. What I would like to know is if there is any recommended maximum grade on hills that I can use to insure that my current railroad equipment can climb the hills as well as future equipment I buy. I would hate to build hills and find that some or all of my current or future trains cannot climb the hills. <br /> <br />Thanks in Advance, <br /> <br />Marc
