Just wondering how many others have done it ? We didn’t want a lift bridge...
not only did we have to go through the steps had to have a curve and a grade ..
it probably took us 10 hours to get this section perfect.. https://youtu.be/FZzQ8gLa87Q

Andy, It loos great from the back side of the steps. I'm trying to envision it on the font side of the steps. Do you have any photographs?

I’ll have to take a pic Monday.
Thank you, Andy!
Ah ha! That seemed to be the way it had to be from the other side. I like the baracade on the right so no one steps down on the tracks. Very innovative! Thank you for the photograph!

Andy, That is really innovative! Thank you very much for the video!!
Silly me! And just when I had thought I'd seen it all! LOL!!! Leave it to a model railroader to figure out a way to get around an obstacle. Pretty awesome!

Thanks, the old layout had a lift bridge and we didn’t want that again so....
to make things better there’s a grade after the steps and the track moves about 20” from the wall as well took us hours on end to get 3 tracks through with clearance to run a scale big boy on the Center loop.
