The Dual Gauge Turnout

Some might find this one interesting. It was not uncommon to run a third rail in between the standard gauge rails so that narrow gauge traffic and standard gauge traffic could share the same route (Dual Gauge). The dual turnouts are a bit more complicated than a normal turnout but not nearly as bad as the three-way!

Indeed, it is very interesting that you run a dual gauge on your model. The finished turnout looks amazing.

Thanks Sierge!

So far that is looking good. I can tell you that I've had a couple of points pop off the throw-bar as well and mine aren't narrow gauge. - Jason

What brand/model do you use for you lighted magnifying headset? Bill

[@OtterCreek]

I don't recall... the lights only worked for a week or so! lol. I have two, one I got from Hobby Lobby (no lights) The lighted one was off of E-bay. I think they are essentially the same. I have a good LED overhead light for modeling on the bench.

Are you sure you want to eliminate part of the turnout? It's going to limit operations or expansion in the future. It's your call, but I would reconsider this.

[@OtterCreek]

Of course I’m sure, there is no way to expand where the narrow gauge is going. It’s already built and scenicked. have no plans on changing anything on the time saver. It would look silly to bring the dual gauge to an already laid and ballasted narrow gauge track. Thanks for stopping by.

You broke your wand again ?🙃

[@OtterCreek]

No, lol. I just grabbed the first pointy thing I could find.
