building their module 21 bricks high take an insame amount of bricks, you need
about 7000 2x4 + 2x2 and 1x4 a total neer 15 000 bricks if my memory is good.
On the other and it give an incredible look and permit you to build
underground. need also a few month of planning and building.
I have a small bridge for my train that take the track 4 bricks high, will
bring it.
I migth also find time to do a small mountain with tunnel out of brick.

p.s. my rooling stock is mostly 8 wide.
