I recently decided to switch my layout form Atlas O72 track to Atlas O81 simply because I had the room and my passenger cars look better running on it. However, I've encountered a problem.
The way the layout was planned, I'd have switches in the middle of half circle curves so that the loop could be completed if the train took the turn, but if it continued straight it would lead to a siding or a branch. I've attached a drawing to illustrate what I mean.
This works fine with O72 switches, however it seems that O81 switches don't exist. Is there any way to solve this problem or does anyone make a switch that would work?
Forgive my ignorance, I just got into the Atlas stuff after using classic tubular for nearly 20 years.
