Fellow travelers,

This link is to a very elegant explanation, given by Richard Feynman, perhaps 
the most brilliant theoretical physicist ever, on why a train stays on the 
track. At first I thought this was a fascinating railroad general interest item 
with little specific connection to S scale, but the more I turn it over in my 
mind, it does bear on the scale/hirail/AF question, in that the thing that 
keeps an S scale train on the track is in fact, the same phenomenon that keeps 
a real train on the track, while the thing that keeps an AF train on the track 
actually is the flange!
