Hey Richard, Have you considered hand laying your track and turnouts? While I don't have the patience for it it, might be a way to get the best of both worlds. As an added bonus, your frogs end up being whatever you need them to be ie; #12 , #20, #7 5/16 - anything! Kalmbach has a book titled "Track and Lineside Details" that would be worth a look if you're interested in making your own turnouts. Tony Koester has an excellent article about handlaying turnouts in this book. Best of luck Tim
