Prints well in PLA with no supports on a Bambu Lab X1C

V3 / V4 Update 3/2/23: I added two more versions to keep tweaking the downward facing ramp issue. I'd suggest printing one each of V2/V3/V4 to decide which works best for you. 

V2 Update 1/26/23: The original blocks have an issue with a downward facing ramp on the male side - the track hits the top of the block and doesn't sit properly. I extended the track on top to fix this issue.

Additional files: I've copied over two sloped mega blok track support designs from Thingiverse. These allow you to use straight tracks instead of the curved ramp pieces. However you also need a third ground incline piece to start the ramp - I've included that from Thingiverse as well. Note: This only allows ramps up in one direction - female to male, not the opposite. I included a fourth file for supportless connections that helps with some of the awkward block heights too. See photos!

You can also mix and match with these slim supports too. And these are great as well. Print them all!
