I chose Shinohara turnouts for their realistic appearance. However, in hidden areas I use Atlas auto/remotes...cheap, cheap cheap...but to date, reliable. The Shinohara double slip doesn't like my older locos but is fine with newer (rp-25) wheel sets. I agree that plastic frogs aren't great for endurance but then, I have an aversion to plastic railroading in general [just a persoanl thing, sorry]. My ancient Bowser Mountain (lost wax brass casting) simply does not traverse the dbl. slip. That is the price I pay for great looking trackage mixed with with older "classics." Im running D.C. on this HO garage layout so can't attest to DCC performance with Shinohara. Seems to me there shouldn't be a probem..."on paper." Regards
