Hi all, since I'm new to Lego Trains, I need some help, please. Is there a Lego Idea Book about trains? Anyone knows how to get a copy of it? Are there websites about designing & building tracks? Thanks Giulio giuliof@iol.it (25 years ago, 13-Sep-99, to lugnet.trains)

Frank Filz and Brian Darrow posted messages about building trains powerful enough to handles grades, but I'm wondering how you would actually lay track to start up a hill.
