Re: Whats the gradient for Disley Tunnel?
well 1 in 131 worked out a treat and we came out just to one side of my marker.. had to put a slight curve in track coming out to get back on the right line to Hazel Grove.
Now must get back to finish last bit of scenery at Heathersage and get the Sheffield to New Mills section up to UKTS.
Oh, will need to put a couple of local stopping train scenarios in Sheffield - Hazel Grove and visa versa as well
