Not pursuing anything approaching realism, our family has begun the discussion of having an around the house style railroad. As it is largely a whimsical project, and we will proceed with the sole purpose of enjoying ourselves, anything goes. In that vein, I want to create a functional, double sided drawbridge for one of the key positions in our initial layout, and after a tour around the net, find little to use in way of reference. I was hoping someone here might know of pictures, diagrams, plans, discussions, etc., on the development & construction of such a beast for model railroading. I will largely need to create/design/engineer the structure I am envisioning from scratch/on my own, but I am hoping there is something out there on the basic practical mechanics where they pertain to model railroads.
Very much appreciate any help, guidance and/or suggestions.
Thanks much!
