We study the quantum geometry of the class of Calabi-Yau threefolds, which are elliptic brations over a two-dimensional toric base. A holomorphic anomaly equation for the topological string free energy is proposed, which is iterative in the genus expansion as well as in the curve classes in the base. T -duality on the bre implies that the topological string free energy also captures the BPSinvariants of D4-branes wrapping the elliptic bre and a class in the base. We verify this proposal by explicit computation of the BPS invariants of 3D4-branes on the rational elliptic surface.
