QUOTE: Originally posted by dinwitty cmon, the trick to turntables is sight alignment of the rails, will you depend on automated means to see if the rails are correctly aligned? no sorry , even tho I know of various means of auto alignment, its more work to do and install than to have fun aligning the tracks yourself.
QUOTE: Originally posted by jnkbritz Gee, I didn't plan on raising an "index vs. eyeball" debate... but since its here... How many of us would want to eyeball the stock rail alignment on a three-way stub turnout leading to an enginehouse? Wouldn't the preferred method be a switch machine that would click to three precise route selections? So why is a turntable different? Then again... how come the rest of the model railroading world isn't wild about old-time camelbacks like me?!? Hmmm... never mind Officer... I'll leave quietly! [(-D] Thanks to all for the indexing sources!! Jim
