Show us your racks!!

The rack section from the terminus station to the next station is about 15 in total line climbs at about 2foot 6inchesis about the line then goes behind the layout to appear at the next station Terminus the length of this section is another 14 foot IMG_0007 (640x427).jpgIMG_0007 (640x427).jpg
 
this is the top terminus another short shuttle line comes also into this station so you can get trains entering together leaving together or arriving and departing at the same time the other loco in the pictures started of as a toy train diesil new body made from plasticard and a panteIMG_0014 (640x427).jpggraph fitted to the roof
