I always thought the long sloped rails were a good idea but thought them to look odd in a Layout. Mostly because the rails look to be 'Floating' in the air with nothing under it. My first thoughts were to sculpt and paint foam with hot wire tools and make it so there was no need for a pier on the upper end. I have always wanted to take a try at that foam hobby but because it would take time acquiring all the proper sculpting tools and large foam sheets and the time it would take in gaining some experience I opted for something quicker to fill the need before jumping into that.
Made from foam poster board with embossed sheets from Noch glued on. I even made some sides for the elevated rails that creates a tunnel when a rail is run directly under. Until I dive into the foam sculpting these will do. I am also going to create another set using the Granite Block embossed sheets from Noch. Great products but somewhat hard to get here in the States.
Forgive the low quality of the photo's...I have just got to get a new Camera.
