From what I understand the most you should slope the track is 1 plate per
section. I've heard of people pushing it to 2 plates per section but it can
lead to traction problems.

| Hey guys, I am thinking of redesigning my arctic base and want to place a train in it. How flexable are the tracks? Can I make a ramp with them so that the train can go up and down without placing to much stress on the track pieces? Thanks, Larry (21 years ago, 20-Aug-03, to lugnet.trains)
