Easing Into Curves (205)

The curves on our layouts are much sharper than almost anything you will find on the prototype, and this can lead to some operational and visual issues. One visual issue with curves is that when long rolling stock and locomotives begin to move from a straight track into a curve it is often done rather abruptly leading to a lurching appearance. This can be overcome to a certain degree by simply laying out your curve with a transition that allows rolling stock and locomotives to ease into the change in curvature with a transition or easement curve. When done correctly this will result in a continuous change in angle or radius from the straight line to the curve itself. So come on along as I show how I create these easements on the Piedmont Southern.
