Re: Lift out bridge
Over the years as we have thought about this possibility, I have always
felt that it would be nice to keep from crawling under the layout but concerned
about the interlocks to keep trains from going through the open section and the
likelihood that all tracks would need to stop for the bridge to open, and that
when we are at a show, there can be 15 of us around going in and out all
the time and the time the bridge would take away from operating
time. Also when running long trains, the stopping distance
changes.

I think this would be an awesome addition to our layout. Anyone
else agree? Bill

"We
do have an operating lift bridge section though. It is
suprisingly portable and works well. The wiring is connected to
the lift section through the hinge sid e and the wiring bus runs
under a padded step. I'll be doing some detailed photographs of the
module within the month, so I'll send you some photos of how it was
done! "
