Step-by-step videos from Fast Tracks demonstrates how to build great looking, high performance switches and trackwork for your model railroad.
Video 12 of 11. (Yup! Tim can't count...) The last step in our build is cutting the isolation gaps in the rail to make the turnout DCC friendly.

Tim,Years ago, I built a turnout using a process described by Jack Work back in 1963. I used Code 70 rail and spikes and solder. It took forever. Your products make me want to build my own all over again. I just have one concern. Cutting the gaps on either side of the frog leaves it isolated electrically resulting in a 'dead' frog which could stall smaller wheelbase locomotives. Do you address powering the frog in later videos?Regards,Dave

I suggest that you mention that we can cut off the on or off side of the head block ties and the throw bar to match many prototype roads as I have read and heard many comments thatthey look ugly and unprototypicalsticking out both sides.

Would you reccommend another power pack other than DCC or is DCC it?

I think it's great but I can't afford it. Make it cheap and I might.

You know, I think step 3 is a decision rather than a step so I think there is only 11 steps + 1 decision
