<p>Indeed, and I can point to places where recently we intentionally put a turnout in a curve and others where we used the diverging route of the turnout for the main track, and the straight-rail route for the siding -- both of which are supposed to be verboten. </p><p>If you're look to the prototype for justification for an exception to the typical for your model railroad, look hard enough and you'll find just about anything. It really boils down to whether you want your model railroad to represent a reasonable interpretation of the real thing. In real railroading you have to know the rule to know when it's appropriate to break it. </p><p>S. Hadid </p>
