Yes, I agree!! I would certainly like to see motorized flex track compatible turnouts, size 6 - although I have to admit I would like to see them in ~code 125+ to be compatible with SHS flex track and components, etc. I know that this code is a little large for most of the S-scale people, but that is the way it goes. Maybe Tom Stoltz will be making some motorized types??? We do need a source that can/will produce adequate amounts reliably. In any event, I am still waiting for inspiration to modify my "too-optimistic-plans-for-the-room-size" layout that is currently lying fallow because of turnout problems and not enough energy/determination to make the ones I have work!!
