double slip turnoutTillig, it looks very much like pre Peco, much of the parts looks like Peco. The previous ower placed some kind of chemical on the rails to weather them. Almost killed all continuity, but I sprayed it with contact cleaner, all good now. I tried to post pictures here, didn't work.
