I am in the process of designing my first real HO layout. I am having trouble with the curves. How would you go about laying out a parallel curve, transitioning from 2" centers on the straight to 2.5" +/- center spacing in the curves. I am going to be using Atlas code 83, 22” or 24” curves. I know I can get proper spacing by using the same curve radius, but will the finished track look right? How parallel will the tracks look? If I use 24” on the outer curve and 22” in the inner curve, what is the technique to get the proper spacing in the curves. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Tim
