I have been building my own turnouts using code 70 rail. N gauge.
I'm having problems getting the tortoise to move the points all the way.
I'm using the wire that came with the switch. I tried adjusting the slide on the machine up and down.
The hole on the throw bar was lined up on center with the switch machine.
The template was a #6 copied from the fasttracks website. I even notch
the side of the points to try and get a little more flex in the rails.
any ideas?
