Here is one for Caboose Hobbies and a #6 three way from Shinohara.

And a medium radius Peco at Cherry Creek.

I don’t endorse either of these places, but have heard nothing negative about them, either…mostly positive.

Selector said it.

Shinohara made then in Code 100 and code 70 - and in code 83 for Walthers to sell.

They require two switch machines or Caboose 220 ground throws to power the frogs - for best results. REQUEST a wiring diagram. The Shinohara Importer had them.

I don’t know about Walthers’ contracted line.

Yes they are called three way turnouts. Do a Google search for three way turnouts.

An example above. You might have to cut and paste the URL. I have never figured out how to make it a hyper link.

When you get ready to right click and paste, just type the left square bracket and URL, followed by the right side square bracket…then do the paste, and then repeat, but this time place a / in front of the URL between the square brackets. When you upload the text, it will appear as it did in mine.

Thanks anyway. Much to complicated. A simple cut & paste is what I use everywhere else. Plus I get a message that cut, copy, paste is not allowed with Mozilla and Firefox. I have tried with Mozlla and Fire fox browsers. I also use Linux operating system. What I have been doing works for me.

You can do it by typing the URL thing, or you can just paste the link and hit the enter key and it will make it a link for you, like this: http://www.loystoys.com/peco/about-3-way-turnouts.html

Thats a bit easier, isn’t it?

I endorse them. I have had nothing but great service from both.

… or type in the link, highlight it and click on the little chain icon above the Bold and Italics icons.

I have two of the Peco 3-way turnouts, which I drive with Peco switch machines. I’ve been very happy with them. I got mine at www.modelrailwaypo.com, which at the time had really good prices on them. When I called on the phone, I got a knowledgable person who physically checked the inventory and let me know they were in stock. They shipped promptly, too.
