Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted May 7, 2014 Author Share Posted May 7, 2014 I wasn't happy with my old helix, so I rebuilt it and as an oval adding an extra 3 foot. The gradient is 2%. Here is the first test run and the locos now have a lot more pulling power compared to the old helix and there ain't any wheel slippage.

Kirley Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 The Helix must take up a 6 x 3 area now but is obviously worth it for the longer runs you are giving the 'Trains'. Picking up on your new supporting steel work as well, you have been busy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave182 Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Happy Days! Very impressive, you can really see the 2% gradient coming out of the tunnel arch. Just out of curiosity, how big is the layout roughly? As Kirley points out, 6' by 3' for a helix alone! Wish I had the space! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted May 7, 2014 Author Share Posted May 7, 2014 Dave the layout is 16'x12' over two levels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Stephen a bit more work to do on the top level of the helix as its going to be integrated into the upper level of the layout.
