As Chairman of EMGS I am interested in all the comments that have been made so far and I am sure the Board will consider everything that has been said. This development has been underway for sometime, but there are a couple of members who have been at the forefront of the process and seen it through to this point. To them I express my personal appreciation and thanks.
In answer to the question on sleeper thickness this is 0.5 mm thicker than the standard - this was driven by manufacturing considerations. I am fully expecting to have 3D prints on the EMGS stand at Warley, so please do come and have a look.
I will try and keep this thread updated over the next couple of months. For those in the North, the EMGS AGM will be coupled with a Modellers Day (non members are welcome) at the Tyndale Farmers Function Suite in Hexham, Northumberland, on Saturday 8th December where it is hoped that the plain track will be available.
I am already planning a layout using the new track and hopefully I will set up a blog so that you can follow progress of this project.
