Amen! I had a couple of HO Shinohara #6's "back in the day" that were short in 
the point-to-frog area. I didn't pay much attention to it at the time, simply 
because they did what I bought them for.

So, that being said, the simple way to resolve the issue with Shinohara #6 
switches is to insert short lengths of rail in the running and closure rails to 
correct the point-to-frog dimension. It takes less time than complaining about 
that (and Heimburger, because I'm the one who designed and approved the 
Shinohara #6 switch) on this list - really!
