Ya, they did something nasty to those rails.

I remember making roller coasters with the blue rails, but there was always too
much friction with the old train wheels.  I should try it again with the new
train wheels.  Your right though its hard to do the top of a hill without the
cars jumping off the track.

How the heck did whoever built that get the track to convexly bend like

were never a problem.
