Hmmmmm
Wel, whaddya know. I should be back in MD that weekend. Plan to drive a car home from FL by the 28th, and we leave for the UK on the 2nd. Having done Kimberton (NG Modular Get-together) I know it is do-able for a day trip. Yep, Google says about 95 miles.
Cool, Pete. If you do plan to make it, bring one or two of those Live Steamers with ya. (As if I have to ask…(http://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-wink.gif))
Well Ken since I am down in Cecil County MD (Elkton) home of the ELKTON BALTIMORE FREDERICK AND WESTERN (be quiet Rooster) I am planning a day trip to come up and see your RR and some of the folks. Looking forward to April today since the Angles are having a feather pillow fight today.

Same here, Noel, I just came in from the shed making sure the snowblower was ready, just in case. Elkton’s just a hop, skip and a jump away.
Gee, the neighbors look at me funny when I hop, skip and jump around the yard. (http://largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-surprised.gif)
What am I saying? (http://largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-undecided.gif)The neighbors look at me funny no matter what I am doing. (http://largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-frown.gif)
I guess they just don’t appreciate my talents. (http://largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-yell.gif)

Well, actually, the live steamers get used and the RYM battery/r-c Mikado never turns a wheel these days, as Mike Moore and the Aikenback Live Steamers frown on non-steam-power. So I guess I can bring both EBT Mikes, as both have r/c. What’s your minimum radius ?

Damn if I know. Tightest spot was leaving Mancos and crossing the bridge to Hesperus, but I’m widening that spot now. It’s all aluminum flex track, but the curves cover a 12-14’ span from one module to the next.
Here’s the Wye:
And the other end I’m working on:
Like I said, the K-27 handles the curves just fine.
Looks like the minimum radius is wide enough for Amtrak equipment so that should be sufficent?

I just got a new to me AML live steam 0-6-0 with RC, so why not make my first op session live steam instead of battery? What could possibly go wrong?
Hey Pete T, see you there!

Great question! “What could go wrong?” Ahhhhh!

Why not send it out in a message to those who are coming? I’m not sure I’m comfortable with posting an address here…although I guess you can find anything using the Internet…
