Construction on the Trinity Sabine & Gulf
#26
Since this is a backwoods logging railroad, I never saw a problem with the trackwork in the first place. The "not exactly perfect" radius would seem to fit this type of railroad. I mean, the track crews wouldn't have been using GPS equipment to get perfect transitions into the curves and a perfect radius. Plus, the roadbed would not have been packed and leveled and perfect upon installation, and subsequent settling would also make the track less than perfect as compared to a class 1. As long as the rollingstock and locos will go through there with no derailments, I say leave it exactly as it is, because it fits the theme.

As for Galen's question, I don't think it was meant to be offensive. As for my modeling, I always hope that others are looking at my photos with a "constructive criticism" look and will ask questions, both to help me and themselves.
