Prototype rail question

Bob:
check some of the old photos of continuous rail being shipped on flatcars that show it bending around curves.
For something more worrying, look at photos of washouts or bridge collapses and see how the rail bends down.

I saw them put a new bridge in, over a new road, on my commute. The rails were just pulled over by a bulldozer with a chain to the shoo-fly position.

In model railroading, there are between six and two hundred ways of performing a given task.
Most modellers can get two of them to work.
