[quote user="Dave Vollmer"] It's possible...  But you almost have to solder a joint between flextrack sections on a curve, don't you?  I mean, how else are you going to keep the flextrack from snapping back straight?I probably don't have as many expansion joints as I need, though.  But, the climate in the layout room stays relatively steady.  It is winter, though, and the humidity is lower, so it's possible the table has contracted some.I may have to do the Dremel thing if things get worse.[/quote]This is very interesting.  I'm wondering if I should somehow do expansion joints with my Kato track?  Maybe leave some small gaps between sections?  Since the rail doesn't float like in flex track I'm wondering if I might have problems.  My layout is in the family room and we keep the house at about 71-72 degrees during the colder months.  It does get hotter in the summer since we don't have air though.  Any thoughts from anyone?
