            Great point that curved jobby Colin. Do they do a 'LGB radius 5' or are they all equivalent to  LGB radius 3?

                  It is a nice piece of kit guys Real Big Smile
                  I've done some laying out and it's looking like it will be part of an S formation with another point leading into it for a bay platform.
                  Mike the outer curve is the same as LGB R3 and the inner is Piko R3
