I dont think it would need all that much adjustment and might suit my plains far better! Im not so sure about the second layer however |
It's a nice enough design but unless you can modify it to suit your requirements without having gradients that are too steep I would stick with a single-level layout. The gradient in the plan appears to be about 1 in 27 which I think is far too steep for all but the shortest trains even with traction tyres. You will get more enjoyment from a reliable single-level layout than an unreliable two-level one.
