Derailments on Atlas Turnouts

Does the same wheelsets derail everytime and only on Atlas Code 100? I would think that the frog flangeway may be too shallow. I've used a dremel tool to deepen the flangeway before, but I should mention that the locomotive derailing did have deep flanges on the drivers and the TO was in the engine service area and the only one I had to modify. I now handlay my track and to's. You can make your own frog or they can be purchased to rework a to if this turns out to be the problem. Hope this helps. Finding and repairing little things like this gives me some satisfaction and keeps the hobby interesting.
