Hi Brian, <br /> <br />Sounds like I'm not the only one who wants a 3-decker layout to make the most of space! As for the 3 year old getting out ot the random destruction phase... you've heard the song..."You ain't seen nothin' yet". Believe it!!!!!!!!! <br /> <br />As for your issue. Yyour staging > city helix has a problem with the track coming from the terminal from what I gather. Might I suggest that you set your base elevation at the intersection of where the track passes comfortably over the helix? This helix I presume is the one gong to the staging level. If so, can you set the tracks leading to it at a downward grade? This would help "sink" the front edge of the helix in your city scene. The upper deck shortline helix can be easily adjusted to fit your needs. Adjusting the space between each of the layers - not necessarily having a uniform spacing may help. <br /> <br />Best wishes, <br />Dimitri Emelianoff
