I don't want to start a flam war but using color to identify track geometry is
probably a bad idea. This is mostly because it breaks up the continuity at least
in a color sense. A better solution would be to mold an identifying mark on the
under side of the track. Now this brings up the new track geometry so rather
than start a side thread I will end with this: This is just my opinion in
response to Scott’s post, please don't start a thread with it.
Thanks,
