QUOTE: Originally posted by rolleiman It appears from your photo that the throwbar is crooked.. Note that the point rail rivets don't line up. It suggests the tortise isn't quite square with the throwbar and is pulling (or pushing) it back.. Or, the throwbar is binding on the roadbed. You say that even in your hand (assume turnout not in place for this) it's not completely smooth.. Is it crooked without the tortise installed?? I don't know why that would be but a simple fix might be to simply trim the ties around the throwbar. Good luck, Jeff [8D]
QUOTE: Originally posted by rolleiman Try turning the turnout over and trimming out the little bars between the ties. Then just slide the tie away from the throwbar. Jeff
