Berkshire, thanks but it's the cheap camera and select angles which hide the blems.
Paul, have you considered using larger curves at each end and provide an short over width bump out of the benchwork just to provide support for the little bit extra width needed for the track at that point?
A little trick you could think about would be to use a tight curve for the first 90 degrees of the curve which could be inside a rear corner mountain at each end of the platform and then come out of the portal with a much larger curve for a cosmetic advantage.
If you added a \__________/ shaped bump out that could accommodate the bump of the curve.
Some thing like this at the bottom of the photo:
I made some of these for folks a long time ago. They were featured in OGR around 2003 or 2004 as new products. They provided the ability to use 072 in a bulb shape on a 4x8.
OGR advertiser Custom Model Railroad Benchwork could make something like this for you, They are very friendly priced.
