(...) For those of us who add ballast and individual ties to our track the placement of holes along the curved rails will be a key point.

(...) The poly bag sets as well as the longer sections come without the 2X8 plates included. We have thrown in the connector pieces with every kit. You are free to use them if you want, but removing them from the kits will not really save you any (...) (14 years ago, 6-Apr-11, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Numbers are: R56, R72, R88 where R40 is LEGO standard. Number corresponds to radius of curve on center of ties. The pattern CURVE-STRAIGHT-CURVE...IGHT-CURVE will match up with 4 sections of R72 perfectly. (14 years ago, 4-Apr-11, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
