Title: RAIL CONNECTIONS
Post by: johnSamJohn on June 08, 2012, 11:20:57 PM
Purchased #6 TURNOUT and require "something to bring spur track into a parallel line with through track.
Anyone have an idea what Bachmann product (and #) I need to accomplish this?

How can you tell that I am new at this hobby?

Good day John,

I'm also new in model railroad but I use the following EZ Track products to bring spur track parallel to the main line;

Try one or two section of, One-Third Section of 18" Radius Curve, Bachmann, Product #44530.

Or, try one or two section of, Half-Section of 18" Radius Curve, Bachmann, Product #44531.

I hope this will help you.

Frank

the angle of a #6 should be about 10 degrees. that is the same as a 1/3 18r section.
