Hill curve

Module Name: Hill curve

Prototype?: None

Builder: UMTC

Owner: UMTC

History:  

Hill curve connects to the outer two tracks of Wabash Yard which are run through tracks in the yard.  This gave us the opportunity to provide continous running of trains on the layout by making the layout configuration in B50 Magrath a figure eight. 

The module has a radius of 37.75" which would qualify it as a brachline module at free-mo setups.
