Banking (the good kind!)

[pauly]

Recently Iv started running very heavy trains, steam engines can cope fine with heavy loads but my battery locos have started slipping and sliding on the greasey rails of castle bank

heres a pic of Torak starting the climb>



now most of the battery hauled trains are light enough to get up with alot of wheelslip and grunting noises but theres a station halfway up the incline

shown here>



and if a heavy train stops at that station it will just spin its wheels on the spot when started again and usually requires the hand of god to push it along til it gains grip, so I am building a banking shed at the bottom that will house a banking locomotive.

pics will be posted as its develops
