Tetters, it was fun to build this turnout and even with those additional rails it was easier than I had expected. Only to do the frog was a bit tricky, but the wide radii of my turnout helped.
Lears2005, Larry, even now, four weeks after I started to build this layout, I am still convinced I found what I have been looking for for years … so the chances are high that this layout will make it a bit longer than my last attempts … well, at least three more weeks, because I’ll be on vacation and I won’t have a chance to tear it down
.
Gus, it is a shame to hide this turnout, but getting nicely flowing track is not too bad either ...
As I had hoped, I managed to build the new street this weekend. I found out that a #11 scalpel is the perfect tool to clear out the flangeways.
