HI bob <br /> <br />build a modual normall size but make out of 3/4" plywood with a thin section about 3ft long and 6 inches wide that isnt permanently attached so you can just run your mainline across it. Make this "bridge" by putting a hing on the bottom of the "bridge" and the bottom of the modual. On the other end put high powered magents on the end of the "bridge" on the modual section put more high powered magnets and guides so it lines up nicelly. The "bridge Sould swing down out of position and then swing back up and lock in place with the magnets and guides. Although you have to make shur it is lined up every time you use it. And that it is up when a train goes by. If you send me your e-mail adddress i will send you some autocadd drawings. <br /> <br /> Brett <br /> <br /> <br />
