I am trying to come up with a specification for a perfect garden railway turntable. <br />What would the best options in a perfect world . <br /> * Robust enough to leave in the garden all year. <br /> * supports the heaviest of engines, would 30lbs should be sufficient. <br /> * Option to have for steam only, no track power. <br /> * no bigger than 2'-0"sq <br /> * accommodate engine wheel bases up to 450mm (1'-6") <br /> * Tracks to be self Aligning <br /> * Power switching <br /> <br />Is there a real need for a garden rail turntable? <br />Would auto turn be a necessity? <br />Would remote operation be a necessity? <br />Would the option of alternative angled exits be a requirement? ie 30 & 90 degrees. <br />How and why would you need a turn table? <br /> <br />remember this is if money was no object , a perfect world . <br /> <br />best option first, least last <br /> <br />any comments thanks
