How much programming is available on these for fine tuning engine speed?

I mentioned that to her. We both like the big modern stuff though.

This was to be a permanent layout. However, my wife has decide that HO is just to small for me to work with. Therefore, WE will be building an O scale layout. She says that is a nice size for me to work with. All I can say is "yes dear, whatever you want."

I'll try again. All the curves I look at seem to either have the parallel track angled slightly toward or away from the main line. Jake indicated that a 10 deg. curve track (radius unimportant) would most likely fit the bill. Does Bachmann make this? I have not seen any curve tracks with a 10 deg. angle.

Jake,

I think you misunderstood. I'll try to explain it better. If I have  #6 switch, and I want to use it to go into a siding, what is the specifc peice of EZ track that I would need to connect to the end of the diverging part of the switch in order to have the siding track be parallel with the mainline track?

HO / Which curve?

If using a #6 EZ track turnout, what curve section do I need to bring the second track parallel with the main line through the switch? It looks like it can't be done at all with the #5 switch, but the #6 looks like it might be the 18" 1/3 radius curve. Does anyone know if this is correct?
