I have an O-63 half circle at one end of a loop and I wish to incorporate an O-72/O-54 curved turnout at the other end, so that the inner-curve (O-54 leg) matches up to the O-63 loop and the outer curve (O-72 leg) will form an outside passing siding, as shown in the diagram. It appears I can use two 1.25" pieces to get the outside siding to mate up, but there seems to be a slight gap on the inside curve when I use those same two 1.25" pieces, so that gap must be slightly longer than 2.5". I'm trying to avoid cutting track if I can. I haven't laid out any track yet but perhaps this gap is ever so slight and forgiving and I will be able to complete the loop without cutting?
Any ideas or alternate suggestions using these turnouts would be appreciated. Perhaps someone has accomplished this already.
Thanks,
Rick
