Thanks Andy.
My apologies for forgetting who you were, and for taking so long to locate 
the programme.
As your original message was on the ME Clearing House, it is little wonder 
that I had no email about it.
I will send it off-list.

For everyone else, calculating the elevation on curves can be time 
consuming. After discussing it with Marv Klotz
(see: http://www.myvirtualnetwork.com/mklotz/ ) he kindly and very quickly 
worked out a small programme to solve the problem.
If anyone else would like a copy, please let me know.
It works on DOS.

Alan

Subject: [modeleng] Track superelevation

Someone asked me about a simple programme to work out the correct
superelevation for track curves of different radii, speeds, etc.
I have just found it, but unfortunately have forgotten who asked and cannot
find their email.

So, could who-ever-it-was, let me know and I will send it to them.
