I've seen many bi and tri level around the wall layouts. Has anyone ever seen a bi level peninsula? I'm mainly interested in how to support the top level. I know I can have legs at each of the corners but I was hoping someone has done something more creative. Blayne

Hello

For the past few years or so, I've acquired a fleet of three Stewart Alco C-628 locomotives (2 low-hood with big circuit board including mounted LEDs and 1 high-hood with conventional circuit board and standard LEDs). I also have one Alco C-630 that's high-hood and very much the same as the high-hood C-628. These units have made a nice addition to my roster and really capture the feel of how massive the prototypes of these engines were.

What I got for my birthday.

I have a brass sand tower. The main tower and its shorter support tower on the other side of the track has a brass plate the connects the two at the bottom.

It seems this would necessitate the whole tower being painted and finished before I can lay track as the the brass plate needs to go under the track.

A plastic kit like Walthers has each piece separate and each can go on its own on either side of the track. You can also make it sit on a concrete slab if you want.
