Curved turnout left for manual operation.

Curved turnouts: Using the curved turnouts, you can change from one track circle with radius 1 into another circle of radius 2 – and round the other way. In this way you can save on the space required, especially in the station area, and at the same time extend the usable track length of a platform. Therefore lots of start sets include this handy type of turnouts.
The inner curve of the curved turnouts corresponds to curved track 6120. Basically, these turnouts should be built into the parting turnout first of all, i. e. the crossing from inner to outer tracks begins with a curved turnout in the inner track at the start of the quarter arc.
The technical arrangement of curved turnouts corresponds to that of the standard turnouts: improved current pick-up in the frog area, conversion possibilities to “thinking” turnouts, control panel switching with clip-on turnout motors for above or below baseboard operation.
