Troubles using the mountain line.
I was intrigued by the mountain line when I first joined the club, but we were never able to actually use it because of problems associated with reversing loops. Howard Beall and I discussed this issue at a couple Fairfax Station layouts and I came up with the idea of the pit bridge anchored by two mountain POFFs. The loop needed for the turn allowed me to develop another idea, interchangeable scenery inserts. |
