Correcting the super elevation and starting to scenic the extension loop.

Very cool. Looking forward to seeing what scenery you put in.

Thanks Dwight, I want to do some similar rock work to what I did on the side of the peninsula. I’m going to make that section removable so access lost trains if needed.

Passenger climbed with ease…curious to see the scenic version

[@flakstruk-8481]

Nice

This loop is exactly what I intend my layout to have, and running long passenger trains (the Ghan) is my intention. I'm using your layout for my inspiration, so, I appreciate the videos. BTW, what radius are those curves? I'm in HO, so will have to do the math for my scale, but that looks to be the minimum I would want. Thanks.

[@nessriverrailroad1299]

Hey Ken, the tightest part of the loop is about 16 inch radius. Correcting the elevation of the track is helping deal trains handle that radius on an incline.

[@avlisk]

I would have guessed a bit sharper, buy those long coaches aren't very forgiving.
BTW, here's a link to the Organ Mountains, which your scenery reminds me of:
