L layout track dia.'s , Just a thought
Just a thought...
One of the earlier comments was that track "A" on in the "L
config." would not have all 072+ curves. While track "A" now has
the same limitations as track "E", Tracks "B" & "C" or "D" would
maintain a "dia." (not radi. O-gauge is in dia. where all others are in
radi.) of 72 or larger. sot the preferred tracks would now be B,C for
these setups. While "Larger is better" at least for "Realastic look",
& "safer fast track speeds" I am not aware of any engine or car
that require larger than 72 to run.

Just a point about this track configuration.
If we turn it around fro an L, then Track 1
would have the 72,54,54,72 radii. It would only
be if we went for an L configuration.
I hope this does not get too heavy to carry?
Ed, what are the board dimensions?
