[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by iandor</i> <br /><br />A gradually sloping site is a blessing in disguise I wish i had one. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />[#ditto] Why is it that everyone who owns a sloping section builds large retaining walls so they can have a flat area to build the railway on, and those with a flat section bring in large volumes of dirt so they can have a slope to get enough height for bridges? [:D] <br /> <br />If you have a slope you can put a few bridges down the 'low' end to level it out. You can use almost anything to hold the track up to begin with, and come back and build the bridges later when you have got the layout running. Garden Tomato stakes make good tresstle 'legs', especially if you are starting out. Build the smallest easiest bridge first, and you'll soon work you way up to grander projects. <br /> <br />Glen Anthony.
