I have just finished building my sunken shed for stock storage. Due to water table problems I have had to lift the shed 6 ins higher than planned and now find myself with a gradient of 1 in 15 between the main line and the shed. My 32mm Locomotion diesel will easily climb this gradient but unfortunately is not controllable downhill as it runs away due to the way the bevel gearbox is designed.
Does anyone know of
1 Any non track power RTR diesels that are controllable downhill.
2 Any alternative braking method I could employ. eg radio control braking vehicle.
I suppose I could go to track power for the gradient section but seems a bit OTT for 5yds of track.
Any ideas most welcome.
