New user, new member, first post ...

We have a new N-Scale club forming, and we have comitted to all hand laid track using the Fast Tracks jigs. We are now working on our track plan and are trying to understand how the various components can work together.

We would like to use a pair of the #8 Wyes at the end of a double mainline run and break into four tracks. The outer two would form a loop, and the inner two would cross over each other and form an inner loop.

Our question is ... can we marry a 14 degree crossing to the end of the pair of #8 Wyes? We are assuming a 1 1/2" spacing between the track centers. We have been unable to figure this out as the angles do not quite match.

Any help and/or suggestions will be greatly appreciated ... thanks ... :D

Richard
