[quote user="twhite"] Safety Valve--I'm not quite sure I understand your question, but I would think it would depend pretty much on your outer radius.  My inner radius is 34", but even with the 32" inner radius on the turnout, I simply add a piece of 'transitional' flex-track 4-5" long to bring the inner radius back to 34".   It's hardly noticeable.  And as I said, since my outer radius is already 36", the curved turnout doesn't interfere at all.  But I would think all of this is going to depend on both your inner and outer radii.  As I said, I hope I understood your question, but I might not have.Tom [/quote]You understood me well enough. What I did not express was the fact that I will have to find room with these huge turnouts. Im determined to make the curves in the plan work in some way and if I gotta use these monsters to do it, so be it.
