Hi Niels,
All track radius is perfecly the same so far (for blue, grey and 9V track).
The diameter of a circle of track is (measured from middle of the ties) same
as the length of 5 sections of straight track. Each of them is 16 studs long.
So the radius of track is 5/2 x 16 studs = 40 studs.
A circle of curved track has an outer diameter of 88 studs, and an inner
diameter of 72 studs.
One stud is 0,8 cm as we all know....
Regards,
Ben
