Large curves

Don't bother, if you need to bank your curves you are using too high scale speed and putting you stock at risk. If you need speed, look at the transition from the straight to curve, especially if you have turnouts just before the turn, as the shock of change of direction at speed will unballance your rolling stock. <br />If you have to bank your track then no more than 5 degrees, the maximum I believe for real world French TGV's at 200mph is 8 degrees. <br /> <br /> I hope this helps. <br /> <br />
