    Golden Valley module

    :). I think the parts will weigh in at around 2 kg (4lbs) which is quite ok. The length I've chosen is what I believe I can handle and lift in/out of cars for shows :). A few guys at 'my' club have 5footers, they are a bit cumbersome... More pics will follow :)

    Golden Valley module

    3 segments are now fully 'corked'. With these I have the short version of Golden Valley (loco service + freight house) ready... The gaps between the plywood tops and the sides has been 'sealed' with 20mm styrofoam. (all of them as of now, only one in the pics...) I used hot glue for this job...

    How to determine inner radius of a (#5) curved turnout ?

    I see. Then I now have the choice of either curving the frog at desired radius or having a 'regular' frog and from its angle continue out to follow a curve with my choice. How hard can it be :)

    How to determine inner radius of a (#5) curved turnout ?

    Hi all! I'm planning on using a few #5 curved turnouts (fasttrack TwistTies) with an outer radius of about 40" (100cm). What I can't figure out is what the inner radius would be? There just has to be a math formula out there...? Google couldn't help me, anyone here? thanks in advance /Ulf
