[quote user="ROBERT PETRICK"]I'm not sure that's the case. Insulated joiners would be needed for Peco Electrofrog turnouts, but not for Insulfrogs. Better check the instructions.[/quote] Robert, you are absolutely correct - the Insulfrog turnouts don´t need insulated rail joiners. Peco turnouts come with a manual, which describes how to wire either Electrofrog or Insulfrog turnouts properly. I am a complete electricals goof, and even I managed to get that straight! Crandell - your are not right stating that all power routing turnouts need to be turned to the same direction to avoid shorts. I never did that with my N scale Kato Unitrack turnouts. However, if you want to enjoy the power routing feature in a passing siding, you have to do just that.
