I've done two lift up sections. The first is hinged and drops down rather that lifts up. Biggest problem is that the rail creeps when it is open so you have to be careful when you close it again. The 2nd is really a lift out and uses double hung window locks. It was easier to do and seems to fit tighter. On the other hand, I haven't run much on it yet. Last year I visited the model railroad club in Belen, NM and they were using the same idea and were very satisfied with it.

Hiya S Scalers Has anybody built either: 1. A Grain Loading Area 2. A Lift Up section, allowing you to get inside a open oval? Any responses would be aprreciated. I remember seeing a lift up design where 2 things happen: 1. the section rolls slightly forward to clear the hinger section 2. the electrical contact is broken when lifted and restored when in-place.
