You've got more ambition than do I, Les.
Your proposed grade is just slightly more than 2%, by the way.

Considering the option for some folks is not operating the railroad, I think that may qualify as ambition!!

Well, Les, considering the disability you've mentioned and the amount of work, gol dang, that certainly is ambition!!

I guess I should give some updates on this. I will get some photos of progress later. I can tell you though it was the best thing I have done since I first started this layout in 96.

I guess I should start where the track crosses the door.
![]() It is just coming off the door here. This is where the switch is for the east bound and west bound meet. This train is eastbound going to Newport News, off layout. ![]() Here you can see the main part of the layout above with the new part below. ![]() Now it is going past a rock cut out soon to be passing Gern ![]() Going under Flux shaft and passing Gern ![]() Here you can see both east & west bound tracks going to hidden yards. ![]() This is the track going to and from west / Russell. ![]() Last one. If you remember back at the beginning of this story this will look familiar. ![]()

Les, you certainly weren't kidding when you said "big changes", but I'd also call them big improvements, too.
