I been working on a plan that incorporates a circle layed on 4' by 4' center and branches out to two side boards 2' by 4' in an L Shape the center being

the largest piece. _O sort of like this.
I can see going around the edge and straight down each side but then I want to Have a Y coming out the circle towards each side lower down the circle. -<( )>- sort of like this. I have drawn this out and it looks cool but I am not sure it can be done. Is it possible to have turnouts off of a curve? The one I see are all straight track pieces. Thanks for any input

Yes. Walthers sells them under the Walthers name. They are made by Shinohara. Very good quality and pretty affordable.

All of my switches are Walthers. I had trouble derailing at the frog with Atlas switches. Tried my voo-doo....nothing worked. Changed to Walthers after visiting a club that used them and that convinced me.

Thanks, I will check out my whalther's catalog. I had a double crossover from them that worked good.

Are the Shinohara turnouts available in the same size as the Atlas?
Do they available in Code 100?

For the most part, I think so. Don't buy Shinohara though. Too expensive. The Walthers branded switches are cheaper. And the switches are the same.

You can save money to buy more train stuff.
