NOTES FROM OUR TECH DEPARTMENT

    This is an HO Scale Nickel Silver Atlas Custom-Line "Mark 3" Wye Shaped
          Turnout Track Piece. It's for experienced train collectors.

As on earlier Custom-Line Turnouts, the new Atlas Custom-Line Mark 3 Turnouts are constructed so that regardless of switch point settling both branches are powered. Due to this the new metal frog is insulated and carries no current. As on earlier Custom-Line Turnouts, most locos will span the insulated frog without loss of electrical pickup; however, engines of extremely short wheelbase or diesels with single-truck pickup may hesitate or stall at the frog. The problem will be easily overcome by equipping turnouts with an Atlas Snap Relay (item #200) which, when wired to the remote switch machine, will energize the frog with track current of correct polarity depending on the switch point setting.

FEATURES: 7-1/2" track piece veers in a Y-shape on one end, as track separates into two directions. HO scale Custom-Line "Mark 3" turnout piece. Track is made of black ties and nickel silver. Universal rail joiner included. Comes in a carded package.

INCLUDES: One HO Scale Nickel Silver Custom-Line "Mark 3" Wye Shaped Turnout Track Piece

REQUIRES: HO Scale Track for Attachment HO Scale Train Equipment

SPECS: Scale: HO 1:87 Track Length: 7-1/2" (19.3cm)

COMMENTS: Keep out of reach of small children. san 11/7/00 ir/jl
