<p>I have got 4 % grades in some parts of my layout combined with R3 and a few R2 curves and i wish i didn't. It cuts down theamount of rolling stock youtr loco will pull nd it also causes othjer problems as well.</p><p>I am trying hard to stick to 2 % these days and at the worst 3 % on a straight run.</p><p>Crossing i do not have, but points (switches) i can help with; what exactly do you wish to know. This is a very big subject and i could rabbit on for hours.</p><p>Rgds Ian</p>
