Saw something really cool using an elevated train on a dedicated track. So I picked up this old Lionel on a facebook group for a good price. I made some blocks the same height as the tunnel to test the train out on. This took some time to figure out but I think the pictures speak for themselves. Still learning how to adapt this to the curves and came up with this experimental design today. Nothing is glued up those braces are just held in place with rubber bands and friction.
The really cool thing is I can put the same radius track underneath and run the train in between the posts. (I think it might work, have not tried it yet because I don't own the track yet). Have to save up before I can afford to buy another oval for this set. As you can see I have alot of work left on this setup. There is lots to do like painting, detailing, printing and etc. Thought I would share this with that group.
