Using the FasTrack library, the turnouts will not connect to adjoining track. This occurs ONLY on the outgoing legs of the turnout (the entry leg is fine) and ONLY on the 048, 060, and 072 turnouts. Anyone else experience this?

I think you have to use a 1-3/8" piece that is included with the switch to make it work. You might try that, I think it's the piece with one or both sides removed. I am not all that familiar with Fastrack, but I think I remember reading that here on the forum somewhere.
Yep - that works. Thanks!
Glad you got it working.
Here is some info I found while looking for something else on the RR-Track website, it explains the Fastrack switch pieces needed:
Lionel FasTrack 1. I can’t get track to join to the O72 and O60 turnouts. What am I doing wrong?
Nothing. You must use the 1200X 1.375 inch fitter straight sections on the exit tracks of the O72 and O60 turnouts as well as the 22.5° cross. This is how Lionel has designed the FasTrack system; RR-Track is merely enforcing the joining rules so that you don’t design a layout you cannot build. RR-Track distinguishes between the 12073/74 straight sections and the 1200X straight section because the latter come with your turnout while the former are extra cost items.
