Hello all.
First time poster. Off we go…
I want to build an MDF bridge to support my classic track. Is there an accepted length to elevation ratio to keep the gradient of the track smooth? I want the cars to be able to take it at "full chat" without jumping out of the slot at the joints, but I want to keep the length of the bridge to a minimum. The bridge will be "modular" (oooh get me!) with a break in the middle to allow for easy storage and the addition of a centre section if required at a later date.
Will post pictures if it works. Won't if it doesn't ;-)
