Dear Tom (and Dick),
    I am not sure how universal a #3 turnout can ever be (the same goes 
for our 20" radius measured at the outisde of the roadbed).   For anyone 
I know that models with a code 110 wheel, the #3 turnout is much too 
short to mimic prototype operation (unless you model traction or maybe 
ore jennies).  I wonder at what speed the prototype would have taken a 
#3frog?  I know the trollies I have ridden slow down a bunch for tight 
turns.
