I would not want to exceed 2% (2 inches per 100 inches) but that is unlikely in a 4 x 8 so I recommend that you get it as close to 2% as possible. If your grade exceeds 5%, forget about hauling freight. I know many locos will climb the grade but it is more of a compromise than I would accept. <br /> <br />That's what I recommend but you can do whatever you think is best, of course. <br /> <br />Good Luck - Ed
