I have a crossover in the yard that might lend itself to a "custom" turnout...
Gus, when you have an hour to sit and ponder what you see in a streaming video, go to <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.handlaidtrack.com">www.handlaidtrack.com</a><!-- w --> and watch Tim Warris, one of the Guys behind Fast Tracks, construct a turnout from rail stock and PCB ties...and some soldering material. You will know soon enough that most anyone can build these. Take it from me...Mr. I'm Not Handy...I built several #8's that work very well. First not so well, but the next was usable, and I got better very quickly. I went back and fixed the first once I knew what I was doing.
