You are missing track textures. should have been part of the install. I would try re-installing.

I don't think it's missing textures. The whole track profile is wrong. Is superelevation turned on? If so, try it with that feature turned off. I think there's a track profile for ScaleRail so superelevation can be made to work with ScaleRail routes, probably on the 3dtrains site

That's not scalerail. The textured portions of track are, but the untextured parts are 100% Kujurail. Since scalerail uses a completely different set of textures, that's your answer. The bigger question is why the Kuju track is where it is.

I am led to believe that the superelvation feature takes a curved piece of track and replaces it with a bent dynamic track piece with the same curve radius and with superelevation. That would explain the mix of track types. In order to fix this, you'd need some kind of dynamic track profile with a ScaleRail shape, which I believe Marc (or whoever at 3dtrains works on ScaleRail) has made

How do you create a dynamic track piece, anyway? I've had half a mind to create direct 2017-resolution replacements for the default track, but I can't wrap my head around that. Is it done a short rigged with bones?

Try setting superelevation to 0. That should solve your problem. In fact, as can be seen in your pictures, the textures disappear in curved sections.
In the OR documentation pack there is a document "How to provide track profiles for Open Rails Dynamic Tracks" that describes how track profiles can be generated for specific track types. With such document and an example of an already written track profile it is possible to generate a specific track profile.

yes I had to set the super el to '0' this remedied the white track sections
even at 1 or 2 they were appearing
