HO Helix Space Requirements

Paul is planning an HO Helix and wants to hear from model railroaders who have built one:

“I am planning to build a helix on my railroad plan to go form one elevation to another. I am wondering what would be the minimun space needed for the elevation. Does someone out there know? Thanks.”

    I, TOO, AM TRYING TO BUILD A HELIX, AND AM DESPERATELY SEARCHING FOR ANSWERS. I DID FIND USERS.RCN.COM/WEYAND/TRCKTRONICS/HELIX/HLARTCL.HTM(ALL LOWER CASE), WHICH PROVIDED LOTS OF INFO, AS WELL AS SOME CONSTERNATION. ALSO FOUND SEVERAL DOWNLOADABLE ARTICLES AT KALMBACH ON HELIXES. AM STILL LOOKING.
