... I didn't notice this earlier but I see clearly now that you have quite a bit of alternating curves in the track route going on here. S-curves without some amount of straightened easement between the alternating bends can be more difficult for running trains, especially longer trains where under stress you can get strange derailments.  I suggest running multiple test runs with typical trains that you intend to use to make sure that you won't be having problems after putting down the track permanently. If you have any issues, you might consider inserting some straight sections to ease things up a bit. Usually a straight section that is nominally as long as a typical car ought to do the trick. Obviously this is a bit more difficult to plan when only using sectional track.  |

Believe me. I have some test runs just have to slow down for the curves. Besides it's at the top of hill can't go too fast. My wife is helping with the build and her input was the s curve. Can't argue with that. |

... Jim, I bought my CelluClay at Michael's craft store. Up here, in every Saturday newspaper, there is a flyer from the store with 40% off coupons. Of course, I'm a bargain hunter, so I kept dropping in with coupons while I was driving by the store to get my load of CelluClay. They have a website www.michaels.com where you can get the coupons too, though you may have to sign up. |
