Hey Dave, thanks for the kind words. Since the yet-to-be-revealed TCLTC
layout utilizes only curve-straight-curve-straight turns (with the hopes that
TLC is even now working on a gentler curve piece), Ross built only to that
compatibility, but he thinks that it will negotiate tight curves and points as
well. We will set up a little test run tomorrow.
Incidentally, while Ross was completing his final test runs last week, we had
a VIP guest at our home-- Steve Barile of the PNLTC!
