Here are some clips of Bachmann class 66 66008 in EWS livery pounding the rails with an engineer's train on 25/10/09. The third clip shows the layout in it's entirety and finishes where the train began, please excuse the mess ! lol
yes, I cut lengths of 1mm card, about 2-3mm wide and glued underneath the outer edge of the sleepers during the track laying process. You may wish to experiment with different thicknesses. I'm modelling Devon, which has some fairly impressive super-elevation in places !

Nice video there, the tracks at the end on the curve, have you banked those curves on a slight slope?

thanks - yes , all exposed curves are shimmed by approx 1mm on outer edges for the super-elevated look.
