Woodland Scenics 3% Incline/Decline Set gives you a smooth, consistent grade without any measuring, cutting or guesswork. The six pre-cut foam sections stack on top of SubTerrain Risers and take your track from flat to 4 1/2" (11.4cm) high over a 12' (3.65m) run – or back down again, since the same pieces work as a decline when you reverse them. At 3% the grade is gentle enough for most locomotives to haul a reasonable train, which makes it the usual choice for a mainline climbing to an over-and-under crossing or a branch line heading up to a hilltop station.

The sections are made from the same lightweight foam as the rest of the SubTerrain system, so they bend to follow curves, cut with a hobby knife and pin in place with Foam Nails while Foam Tack Glue sets. Each piece is 2 1/2" wide, enough to carry HO and OO track with a little shoulder for ballast, and the N and O scale crowd use the same set with their own roadbed on top. If you need the grade to start from flat rather than from a riser, add the ST1415 3% Incline Starters, which are the matching lead-in pieces.
