Also good to know, though my new pike is nowhere near big enough that I could ever consider using #8s anywhere. [(-D]

Yes, it is a #4 frog. since you are diverging both sides the divergence is equal to the curved part of a #8 turnout both ways. That is really handy to know as I use them with #8's in yards.

Atlas Wye frog #?

For the sake of designing a layout, what's the frog number equivalent on the Atlas Wye turnouts? I'm guessing it's a #4, but I can't find the info anywhere (including a search here).

Thanks!
