[quote user="wedudler"]  I wish I had know about stagered joints earlier. <IMG height=900 alt="" src="http://www.westportterminal.de/H0-USA/Diamond_Valley/central_valley/08-09-04_IMG_5462_1200.jpg" width=1200>  BTW, my rails are  not cut. I've use a fine saw to make a cut only into the rail head.  Wolfgang [/quote] What kind of track is that?  It looks great!  Another reason that the rail was 39 feet was that 40 foot lengths of rail with 40 foot cars could potentially cause harmonics which would over time destroy track and equipment.
