Firstly; I really should not be getting involved in any non metric conversations, however maybe the local authorities won't find out. <br /> <br />I have to agree with Smoggy, I use LGB's tightest curves and I must say my LGB Mallet and its associated carriages (600mm long) look really strange, as does my ICE train on these curves. I have many in my reversing loop but I have no choice as I am determined to make my railway fit my garde and and not the other way around. To put an LGB Mike through my reversing would be an incredible sight. However I do have a few of these tight curves on my main line and I have no trouble with them at all, as I run only LGB rolling stock. <br /> <br />I used some second hand LGB R1 curves but nearly all my track is LGB and Garden Railway Club of Australia club track, which is similar to flextrack only better in my opinion. But I do use LGB curves as minimum templates to compare any curves I do make and it works for me. <br /> <br />Regards <br /> <br />Ian; Kawana Island Tropical Railway.
