What is the most reliable 3-way turnout anyone has experienced?
I intend to place one in a helix 'box' just outside my train shed layout, and will be providing a door to reach in and fix derailments, but I am hoping to do that VERY seldom.
Here is my proposed use of a 3-way.
In this mock-up the carpet represents the interior of the train shed. That 6" wide floor board above the carpet is the wall thickness of the shed. Then the 3-way is mounted inside the external helix housing.
I have some nice Peco ones (pictured), and a couple of nice Roco ones.
Other recommendations?
