Hi folks,
Well, I think I came up with a solution to my problem. I went to visit a fella who has a railroad that takes up 90% of his basement. I described to him what my situation was and he explained how he constructed his road bed.
It all seems very simple however I have one question now that never came to mind earlier.
Because I have an over/under section located on my layout which takes a bridge of any kind to allow the track to pass over the other I need to know what to do about the elevation at that hight and at that perticular section. To get somewhat of an idea of my track I should explain that where it crosses over one another is like the mid section of a figure of 8. I really don't want much for elevation as my layout really doesn't allow it because of its length. (16 feet aprox.)
Any suggestions will be GREATLY appreciated and thanks in advance.
