I ended up using Marx prewar switches ( manual).I simply liked their switch stands as opposed to .the others..these were 27 diameter curved switches. On the Hi-Rail layout I cut down the guard rails on the MTH Realtrax automatic-switches with no bad result for the K-Line and MTH equipment that I run

Nothing is more fairly distributed than common sense: no one thinks he needs more of it than he already has.

Does anyone make a curved switch, 031/054 or 031/042, that the Marx fat  drive wheel will run on? I picked up an 054/072 but it's to big a curve for my layout and wont let my 999 pass with out modification.

Also does any one know where the LMRA annual Model Railroader's show and Pottery in Fort Worth is held? ( this weekend)
