At least that's what they say on the golf course.

 

I've been wanting to put a depot on my layout, but the inner track work was 054, thus too tight for my 21" passenger cars.  There's 3 curves that need to be re-worked from 054 to 072.

 

Well, I bought a Walther's depot off Ebay, figuring one of these days.....

 

I have an 072 template and this morning placed it over the curves I need replacing and realized it could be done!!!

 

Back when I built the layout I had planned for 072 but when I bought the track I bought 054.  The cheapskate that I am I decided to use the 054 and add a couple of straights in the mix to get it all lined up.

 

Imagine my surprise when the 072 template fit like a glove   I had enough 072 curved sections to do 1-1/2 of the curves but had to order more from RCS.  Here's a shout out for ROSS, I ordered them on the 13th and got them today!!!

 

I've already taken up 2 of the 3 curves, plus a load of scenery (more $$$), but I should have the track laid and running trains by tomorrow.

 

(Now I have to go remove the center rail on these new pieces!!!)

 

I may be converting my 3rd Rail E7 over to BPRC if this does like I want
