I just installed 3 Aristo wide turnouts (10' dia) and my 0-4-0's don't like them. <br /> <br />There seems to be two problems. <br /> <br />First problem is electrical... the engines tend to stall when they come to the frog. The frog is a lot longer than on the standard turnout and unless the loco has some speed, it may not be able to traverse the turnout. <br /> <br />Second problem is mechanical... when any of my 0-4-0's, LGB, HLW and Aristo go across them the loco's dance and jump around... not smooth at all. <br /> <br />My standard Aristo turnouts don't give me either of these problems !!! <br /> <br />What is going on and what can I do to fix this? <br /> <br />Chuck
