Hi Don: Are these the newly designed switches that will take both scale and high-rail wheels? I assume these are a direct replacement for the AF switches and thus have a radius for the curved part of about 19"??? I also understand that two larger size switches are in the works. Which are they and will they have the recommendations from the NMRA for curve radii (thanks to Mike Scivoletti comments some time ago) as per the following table:
Switch Number 4 5 6 7 Curve radius (in) 21 36 58 67 I seem to remember an earlier e-mail discussion about the radii of turnouts, but anything over yesterday tends to get lost, stored in a file that I can't find, or is readily accessible (however, with a little searching I found Mike's comments on where to find the information in the table above.)!
