Description
Minitrix R3/R4 left curved turnout with a polarized frog.
The R3/R4 curved turnout was developed with the same approach as the R1/R2 curved turnout except that it is matched to the R3 and R4 Radius curves and that a curve angle of 30 Degree can be taken into account.
The resulting track layout has a considerably closer spacing. Despite this, the space required is still not all that large even on smaller layouts. Curved turnout for the R3 and R4 radius curves. The turnout angle is 30 Degree.
Minitrix Track is the ideal track for fast setup of a track pattern on a table or on the floor. With six sizes of curves, flex track, standard or wide radius turnouts and standard or wide-angle crossings the Minitrix track system offers ideal conditions. The most important is careful installation of the track. Small unevenness, wood chips remaining under the track or deburred drill holes have relatively greater effect in 1:160 Scale than in larger scales. For trouble-free operation, we recommend mounting an N layout on a permanent sub-base using plywood or open framework construction. Minitrix track has solid rails made of a special rust-free alloy. Together with the prototypical profile cross section this guarantees unsurpassed contact reliability between wheel and rail. There are also different track extension sets, item numbers 14311 and 14312, for easy expansion of your layout. This allows you to set up parallel loops, passing sidings, and storage tracks.
Curved turnouts for the R3 and R4 Radius curves. Turnout curve is 30 Degree. An electric mechanism can be installed in the turnout.
