Thanks for the complement! I've been constructing bridge designs for
several years now for my train ramps. If you want to see some of the stuff
I've built, Look me up on Brickshelf or go to http://www.scltc.org/ .
We're just getting off the ground with our site and should be making
upgrades soon.

OH! Trust me you will need a lot of space, of approximately 4ft. square
(3.3m x3.3m) per ramp! A tip, although I haven't posted the method of how
to do this on our group site,a spriral ramp is a very efficient means of
achiving the goal height. It can be rather long to cover here, but if you
are interested, sent me an email.
