Well, the Racers track is eight dots wide...and the train track clearance

ground, but it's at like 8 bricks high or something, which might make it
conflict with actual trains.  On the other hand, you could raise it using those
ramp pieces up to the height of your new upper town.  Problem is, it would
obstruct the view of Janey's buildings and it would look ugly.

Ramp pieces are a no go, they are way too steep.

My thought was the racer track would drop to track level.  This could be
done reasonably quickly, but this could pose a logistical problem.

If the track in this raised to one brick height, like it is on the
valley part of the layout, it would help allot.

P.S. Does anyone else post though email.  Do you have problems with
Lugnet just ignoring a post you send in and never send you an auth
message.  This happens to about 1 in 5 messages I send, including the
original version of this one.

(...) LUGNET admins have heard periodic reports of this, but Todd has not yet found the issue. If you would be willing to help try to debug this, please contact Todd (or me if you're not sure how to contact Todd) with details of your setup. (20 years ago, 25-Nov-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
