How can I call a RESTful .Net WCF Service from cURL?

I created a WCF service, which I am hosting on a server. I can successfully call the service from a desktop application successfully, but I have trouble calling the service from curl at a terminal prompt.
Here is the server call:
http://192.168.1.80:9000/WcfServiceLibrary1.CRUDContact
If I wanted to call a method, say, GetVersionInfo, I would do:
http://192.168.1.80:9000/WcfServiceLibrary1.CRUDContact/GetVersionInfo
In a .Net application, I would append /mex/ before the method call, but that is neither here nor there.
cURL communicates with the server to a level, because if I specify any other URI than the first, I get a 404 error, as expected.
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN""http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>Not Found</TITLE>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" Content="text/html; charset=us-ascii"></HEAD>
<BODY><h2>Not Found</h2>
<hr><p>HTTP Error 404. The requested resource is not found.</p>
</BODY></HTML>
If I call just the base without any method, I get what I would see inside a browser, namely a screen showing how to call the service from C# or VB. If I call using any method, even a made up one, I get nothing, literally, just a blank line. I even captured the output to a file and nothing.
cURL lines that I tried:
$ curl http://192.168.1.80:9000/WcfServiceLibrary1.CRUDContact/mex/GetVersionInfo
$ curl http://192.168.1.80:9000/WcfServiceLibrary1.CRUDContact/GetVersionInfo
$ curl -H "Accept: application/xml" http://192.168.1.80:9000/WcfServiceLibrary1.CRUDContact/GetVersionInfo http://192.168.1.80:9000/WcfServiceLibrary1.CRUDContact/mex/GetVersionInfo
I tried several other variants, but always empty.

Even though you're asking a Q aboutcurlthat is on topic on this site, I feel your Q would probably be better served on SO, so I'm going to migrate it.
