| − | The "superelevation" or the slope of rails in curves is proposed from now on in T:ANE.

| − | Here is the example of a machine launched to 80 kph in a curve of 500 meters of beam. Its slope has to be 4 ° to resist the centrifugal force and not not wear out prematurely the outer rails.

| − | However, the implementation of the superelevation in T:ANE is little transparent for the moment. Here is thus a small guide who will supply you all the necessary elements.

| − | In T:ANE, the superelevation is adjusted by means of two parameters. We reach it by the panel "rail", and " advanced mode "
