Thanks Greg. This has turned into a real project but I think there is a light at the end of the tunnel! It is amazing how much dirt removal is involved with leveling an eight percent grade! I am currently waiting for the last eight split jaws to arrive and I can "Get-R-Done"! I will have to challenge myself to precisely hack a couple of lengths to join east and west. The entire pike is a little under 100', which apparently is relatively small. I knew I'd never have been able to tackle anything much bigger. I did go the expensive route with clamps at every joint not only for conduction but also for strength. In GR terms, I guess I aspire to be a "sparker" and a "puffer"! The real challenge has been making the track as unobtrusive to the landscaping as possible as my wife hates model railroading! I used a lot of river rock, shale, lava stones and can't wait for the brass to dull! Sometimes I feel guilty as I am only doing this for myself. It's a sickness, I just love trains! <br /> <br />Rich
