There were 9 17 degree curves of varying length on the Coles Valley branch, the longest covering 136 degrees through a tight cut. I've seen up to 16 degrees on the Rocky Ridge Branch.
Out on the main there are two 17 degree curves through 83 and 93 degrees on the two approaches to Sideling Hill Tunnel. 10 and 12 seem to be the norm on the mountian portion of the main.
