Fast Tracks

Does FT have any method for making HOn3 code 55 curved turnouts? Or am I relegated to another source?

I am not expert on FT items, but even though they don't make a curved turnout in HOn3 for code 55 track, you can get the twist tie kits. Once you have the kit and template for your turnout drawn on your layout or work piece, you can place the twist ties and bend them to the ratio needed for your curve within limits. You should still be able to get tools for the frog and switch points to help make them and build on the layout or desktop depending on what your plans are.

Not as easy as jig building, but easier than pure hand laying.

Some others here will be sure to correct my input if I am wrong.

Have fun.

FT HOn3 twist ties are designed for code 70, 83 and 100 rail. I have asked Tim (see my previous posts) about this and he says FT is considering an HOn3 code 55 twist tie product, but it does not yet exist.

I may end up going with a wye or ordering from Railway Engineering for the curved turnout....

Oh well.

Thanks,
