That is some very good progress there and it looks great.
I never thought of hot glue for the riser attachments. :thumb:

MyChewToy said:Wow really great job so far. I have been thinking about something like this so I hope you don't mind if I ask you a few questions.
1. What is the size of your benchwork ? If you posted that earlier sorry if I missed it.
2. Is that 1/2 plywood or 3/4 for the bottom and each additional level ?
3. Is this all going to be single track / single train there and back or are you building it to all for multiple trains ?
I have DCC so I would really like to do something like this with multiple trains and schedules , etc. Anyway looks great! Keep the pics coming!
Yes i have, so far i only have 2 engines and i only have 2 levles so far. My large steamer can go up to the second levle but it isn't pretty due to the tight radius.spitfire said:Wow!!! Just caught this thread now - you've made amazing progress!!!! :thumb: Looks like the multi-level will provide a lot of interest. Just curious - have you checked your engines on the grade? There's nothing more frustrating than building something according to accepted tolerances only to find the equipment you actually have won't work on it.
