Mike,
IT'S ALIVE! (in my spooky Vincent Price' voice)

I WANT ONE (in my little girl whiney voice)! Seriously I could nearly double the size of my layout! Looks great Mike!

Thanks Mikki, to be honest it really isn't that expensive to build!
Some nuts and bolts, a little wood and an actuator from I believe the big "A"
if you would like you can email me and I will send you the plans I used.
@Mark Boyce has a couple and he seems to really like them.
Thanks, Mike, I just might take you up on that. I DO realize that I have to get more done on the main section of my layout first but always planning for future expansion. The problem with my Pink Elephant In The Basement was that I kept adding feet but never getting anywhere. I vowed that would not happen this time.

LOL I understand that! I think that is the best part of building a model RR, just wondering where you can acquire more real-estate to expand. Some folks just go up!
P.S. Sent you an email.
Thanks, Mike, I received the email with the plans. I really appreciate your sharing them.
As far as rea estate I DO have some more but the door to the train room, the door to the walk-in large crawlspace and the sliders to the outside all interfere.

Yes Mikki, I just copied what Mike did. Buy the hardware, drill some holes, put some limit switches in line with the wires to the motor, and it worked. Mike came up with a simple plan that I never thought of.

Thanks Mark, it's not all mine got so.e from a forum member but it has been. Years and can't remember who. I know it took me awhile t adapt it to the Atlas bridge and power.
