ORTS & Grade transitions

[UP_4848_Thunder]

Even though it's known on quite the number of routes like the default Marias Pass to have such poor grade transitions, but how will ORTS handle such too tight grade transitions and keep Bogies and wheels from appearing too off the rails even in vibration mode? Tilting elevations seams to keep on the rails more then it does with vibrating since vibrations should be set to vibrate levels at grade transitions, curves, coupler force slacks run in/out, over switches and friction changes.

ORTS team is doing a great great job and am proud of it since I'm loving how slack now plays where I can now get rid of those rigid coupler settings. But this bellow is making me wonder about bogie behavior even though it could be the car is long and shouldn't be on this route or grade transition that in the real world if it were like this it would be at the bottom of you know what.

Just curious, what does it do in MSTS?

MSTS keeps the bogies to the rail no matter what with say less then a inch drop down like axels do on grade transitions and scratches the bottom base no matter what.

Plenty of pics to show it.
