Turnouts makes me think of track.? Track makes me think of Tomalco. Tomalco makes me think of Shane Lambert.? ?Shane Lambert makes me think of the Erie Lackawana GP 35 that I think I purchased from him.? ???? Andrew Parker

What is the site for these turnouts please?

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýAndrew,There is another path.? Turnouts are available from Empire Trackworks (empiretrackworks.com) at quite reasonable prices.? They have been shipping product for about a year (+/-).? They have a nice catalog of S turnouts.? In case you missed one of Shane's comments, Micro Engineering is in the process of buying Tomalco Track.? As in all business-to-business product ownership transfers, "Lawyers", "Accountants", and "Logistics" take time.? Anticipated availability of Code 100 S- scale flex track from Micro Engineering is "July", this year.? Look for Micro Engineering on youtube for their public statements.? --Dave McBrayer Auburn, CA ----------------- On 02/19/2025 7:49 PM, Andrew Parker

I don't have a business I just make some extras now and again.? Unless someone asks me to make some items.? I do most of the Fast Tracks stuff in code 70, 83 and 100.? I have most of the jigs: Turnouts, 4, 4.5, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 10 and i do double slips, three ways.

Thanks,

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýI have mentioned many times almost all of the turnouts on my layout were built by John Wickham. I am very happy with them. But I have not been in contact with him for a few years. My track is done ¨C I am not adding any more. I do not know what his current status is, if he is still making S turnouts. ? I know Empire Trackworks is very active. I have heard good things about Alan so that is why we have chosen to endorse him. ? Thank You, ? See my layout progress at:
