Chip, it's basically been stated above, but you could have a train coming down from out of a tunnel (or out from behind a dense stand of trees, etc.) in the mountain loaded with logs, headed for the sawmill. When the train nears the sawmill, it goes behind the mill and into a hidden tunnel which is the start of an inclined out of sight track that returns the train to the point of origin, without ever being unloaded. This way, the only time the loaded train is visible, it is heading in the right direction for the load being carried. The only problem with this is that you would not see the empties going back to the point of origin. It depends on how you want to run your layout. <br /> <br />-Joe
