That's incredible! It's a fantastic railroad. Very well done. I was surprised to see that the helix doesn't have any road bed. I didn't know the track was strong enough to hold the train unsupported.
Regarding the helix - I tested this before construction and determined that the heaviest engines I was using (4-6-0) would span a 15" gap without excessive sag. I don't run my 25 pound Mallet on the helix.
Excellent garden rr and video .The view around the yard is cool too,Thanks for sharing.
