Here is a more traditional scratch stock. If you round or cut the “fence” into a vee shape, it will easily do inside cureves.

James wright has a nice video that includes how to file the sort of profile you’d need for your track. Pay attention to keeping the file square to the work. I found it best to square the stock and hone it square on your diamond stones before you file the profile. Then all you have to do to get a good cutting edge is to polish the faces of the plate on your stones.
And don’t forget the cutter will work in both directions. Don’t fight the grain.
