Building An Ho Access Lift bridge

[@sukhdeepubhi7309]

Next time you are south of the border, pop into a Harbor Freight tool store, where you can pick up an inexpensive generic dremel tool with a cut-off disk to make the cut. Cheap And fast!

[@jamestown57]

Their dremels are to cheap, they don't have any tork so they bind up really easily

[@MMRails]

Well done kid. I just installed my lift out as well and I haven’t cut the rails yet either. It’s a duck under for now. I should have gone with hinges. You did a great job especially considering you had no help! -Mark

[@playingwithtrains7764]

Great job! Love to see you building things and your creative solutions.

[@OttawaModelRailFan]

Nice that you got them connected. Good vid.

[@sparky107107]

if you put a flat fender washer on the screws you used on the foam board side.. it will add a bit more strength. if you can still get to them. very nice build. just about as easy as my lift out. great job on it.

[@LJRLowevilleJunctionRailroad]

very creative, good job! great to see those trains running across...linda 🚂🙂👍🏻

[@JoeG-firehousewhiskey]

Pretty ingenious, looks like it will work great!

[@phil-iv3ki]

Dermal the best tool for cuting track. You should wire on a switch so you can stop a train with out stopping the others

[@CartersTrains]

Looks good! Also, I came up with an idea for the derailing turn issue. How about you combine the tunnel and plastic wall idea and make a little cliff side! If a train derails, it won’t get stuck in a tunnel, and it will look more realistic!

[@SMTMainline]

Not a bad idea

[@ashevilletrainman6989]

Yo yo yo! There’s never a wrong way to build a lift out bridge and people will always say “oh you should of done this”. But good job! Looks nice .

[@trains88youtube35]

Been wanting do that on my layout. Great video!

[@brockriemer1929]

Wow that looks great!

[@vickiemuir1520]

Wow really coming along well

[@thesierrastandard7281]

Very nice work

[@BarteauRailArchives96]

I could never do this I would mess it up, but besides that it’s coming out nice can’t wait to see trains going on the two layouts

[@spproductions5103]

That's awesome

[@geraldratte9254]

nice lift bridge SMT, one thing your turnout should of been on inner track diamon crossover for smoother runing radius on curves is important, that is my opignion and experience,2nd track way to close to edge of bridge going over curve abit to sharpe should have a clearance 1 inche from side for sturdiness and safety of engine and rolling stock they do cost a lot to buy new even if you get them cheap we all do fixes them to run, for a starter lift bridge is good . Congrats on ading your 3rd layout now more fun time and maybe some short operation session.

[@Engine1988]

And that theory is as crazy as the designer of #307 (my Bachmann F7)!

[@jamestown57]

Yeah this hobby is getting too expensive, last time I was at my hobby shop a turn out was $25. They used to be $3-$5 before I stopped but that was around 20 years ago. Nice work though

[@rgmrails]

Great! Now we just need details

[@nathandelay]

That’s a good simple idea

[@balakishakis6614]

Looks like an empty space next to the track. Low key you should put a stream or runoff there.

[@NorfolkSouthernProductions]

Nice bro you could put that the singal bridge on it but it’s look really Fine to me

[@SMTMainline]

What singal bridge?

[@NorfolkSouthernProductions]

Over by the water tower

[@NorfolkSouthernProductions]

Maybe during a stream I can tell you where I’m talking about

[@hubertgunpowder]

Awesome. I have Märklin !!

[@SMTMainline]

Vary cool, do you know what year they we're made?

[@hubertgunpowder]

I started many years ago. I have analogue locs and digital locs (with sound).

[@michaellindsay6735]

That's is going to be soon cool

[@KSR_YT06]

You should get some BLMA signals, it will make the layout more realistic, and you could make more realistic operating sessions. And you can let others know in streams if the switch is switched.

[@joshbnsf]

Love it

[@HotRodRodney25]

Looks great. it's not hard to make a lift out section I've got them all over different levels of the layout even a 5ft 1" bridge and more to build

[@DiggerEvans]

good job

[@elleryparsons5766]

Hey Smt what you are spending your money on is the Best way who Needs to go to a Bar Model Railroading is the Best Drug hands Down.

[@aidenerland6916]

Cool!!!

[@oakvillerailfan553]

Cool

[@aidenerland6916]

How can I get more oh trains

[@elleryparsons5766]

MOVE THE HINGED BOARD A AUARTER FORWARD GIVE THE RAIL ROOM TO BREATHE.

[@warbabyproductions]

Hey dude I got my train set

[@SMTMainline]

Congrats!

[@elleryparsons5766]

MOVE THE ONE TABLE TO THE OTHER TABLE.

[@elleryparsons5766]

If I had to spend my time doing Something Model Railroading.

[@kevinjennerproductions2024]

Mmmmm ok

[@ivanivanovichivansky1388]

2021 if somebody found this it dose't work and 1 loco derrail there
