| I think we are closer to seeing a new larger track radius than anything else, mostly cause it seems like the least R&D dollars and is backwardly compatible with all other track elements. SteveB (...) (23 years ago, 17-Dec-01, to lugnet.trains)

| (...) What would I like to see track wise? - Automated turnouts as you mention - A new larger curve radius, probably 16 studs larger - 4 stud and 8 stud track sections - New geometry turnouts + one which the divergent track is equivalent to one (...) (23 years ago, 17-Dec-01, to lugnet.trains)

| I've toyed with the idea of modifying the points (switches): By removing a section of the turnout, two points can be placed turnout-to-turnout while keeping standard track centres and maintaining an overall length of 3 straights ;-) ...have a play (...) (23 years ago, 17-Dec-01, to lugnet.trains)

| I have some ideas about flexible track which I intend to develop, but I think the current track geometry is too limited to be worth expanding. I *would* like to see new track parts, and a larger radius curve & new points would be top of my list. On (...) (23 years ago, 17-Dec-01, to lugnet.trains)
| | | | Track? MOC or New?
|
| I am waiting for ten years now to get automated points, stops and decouplers, as well as new track parts. I am wondering what the train community would like to see as new track parts or automation. I have some examples on brickshelf: (URL) anyone (...) (23 years ago, 17-Dec-01, to lugnet.trains)
