Salvation for us (the TCLTC) will be in the geometry of the curves. We
currently use a clumsy straight-curve-straight configuration for our corners;
are the numbers on what those geometries are public information yet?
We look forward to the Good News;-)

TCLTC and PennLUG are in the same boat John. Our steam fleet will look fantastic
on the new wider ME curves and will run much better too. This will probably be
the first part of our layouts to be converted to the new rails.
