That's eminently sensible - the cement bubble might be a good place to start - popular, unique, and probably required in some numbers.

It's not really that small, it's just far away.

I've just been round to where I made some ramps from a single sheet of hardboard - so, they are exactly eight feet long - and the rise is actually three and a quarter inches - more than I remembered. They were made to lift the track to go over a Hornby suspension bridge. We had no real problems with things going up there - certainly not with Murphy traction.

Of course, a 181 would have slightly more tractive effort available.......

Murphy Mania appears to be a recognised condition, with its own magazine and an annual convention for "sufferers". http://www.frits.cistron.nl/murphy/mania.html

Using Roof Flet as a Ballast Underlay..... Good or Bad idea?
Broithe replied to Paudie Riordan's question in Questions & Answers
I worked in a switchgear factory that made some circuit breakers for Zimbabwe Railways - we had two chaps come to the factory to learn about them - the two biggest people that I've ever seen - Max Dhliwayo and Alex Makomva - each the size of a telephone box and without an ounce of fat on them - it would have been interesting to see somebody try to get them to sit in the 'blek' section... I've tried for many years to track them down, but I just can't find them. -
A spring washer under the thumb-screws helps - as the balls in the joints aren't very spherical. This helps to take up the slack a bit, if you move a joint to a 'loose bit'. The croc-clips are easily replaced by something better, if you find some. For a few quid, they're OK when you need them.

Is that Bailey's in the squeeze bottle?
