As I started to prepare a clinic on the trials and tribulations of designing, and building the backbone style helix on my layout, I found out that CraigBeck.org doesn't exist anymore and the helix calculator is gone. It's a shame because CraigBeck.org had a lot of great tools for the model railroader on it. I found another helix calculator online at :

I will put the new link up on the blog links section to the right. Sorry for not catching this sooner.
It's 1943 and the country is at war. Allied victories are turning the tide of the war and America's industries and the country's railroads, big and small, are doing their part. The Maryland & Pennsylvania RR (Affectionately known as The Ma & Pa) might not have been as busy as the big RRs, still played its part in contributing to the eventual Allied victory. Come and see this all relived again as I build an HO scale version of The Ma & Pa, 1943.
