HI all --
First, I don’t do this. However, Dick Karnes likes to make his turnouts
with polarized frogs through contacts so he can run nearly prototypical
point to stock rail clearances. If you look at real turnouts, the space
between the open point and stock rail is very close, acting as a de facto
guard rail. With like polarity on the point and stock rail, you can get
pretty close...

What makes them DCC friendly as well as DC friendly too is bonding the
points to their adjacent running rails and insulating and positively
powering the frog. It's a small simple procedure that eliminates any chance
of future problems
