But why the flared rails. The only other time I have see this is the vintage original Benkei release with the U-Turn. They did this because of the sharp turn and the tendency for a long train to derail on the curves. This pictured rail sure doesn't seem like a long train would have a problem with that mild of a turn....unless this rail is going to be part of some other configuration I am very curious about it.

Hmmm...now as I sit here pondering...I wonder if this is meant to be for Monorails....put two together for a nice ramp and the wide part of the rails might be for the over rail Monorails to be able to use them where most of the newer ones can not go up the slopes that come with Monorail tracks. I have only had one Monorail (30th Anniversary Disney) that could navigate the slopes where most all the modern ones don't.
