Eleven Inch HO Radius & GP38-2s

[K487]

I just wrote a response to the above thread listed below and the computer ate it.

The curves are indeed 11" radius (not diameter).  And believe it or not I myself check this every once in a while.  Why?  Even I have a hard time believing it myself.  And the HO GP38-2s did indeed go through these loops smoothly with zero derailments.

Regarding a pic, I'm 67 and an analog guy; digital things drive me crazy.  My son lives out of state but helps me sometimes when he visits.  I was able to pull up a pic of the visible loop in my computer's Picasa files, but I'll have to find someone locally to help me turn it into a message or whatever and send it.  Or see below:

This may sound crazy, but if one of you could help walk me through this pls send a private email with your phone number and I'll be glad to call you back.  Maybe we could get it done.  Thanks.
