My friendly local hobby-shop owner feels that the available S-scale turnouts
are unreliable.
" If you can scratch build a structure you can scratch build a switch to suit
your exact needs just like modelers have done for decades in HO scale. Only
difference is it's easier in S scale cause the parts are a bit bigger and
easier to handle.....dave"
Hi Dave,
I am not sure just what you mean by the parts being bigger for S scale
turnouts. I am using the same code rail in S as I did in HO in the early 80s.
Code 100 and code 70. The components are the same size just guaged wider than
HO.
With that said I have learned from pictures on this group that you can take a
code 100 Shinohara (SP) in HO guage and cut it down the middle to widen it to S
Scale. Just a great idea.
I have handlaid all my track but I do plan to play with that idea. I think it
is pretty cool.
