I make turnout templates, turnouts and custom trackwork for model railroad enthusiasts. Www.ohrtracksupply.com
Oak Hill Model Railroad Track Supply LLC was formed to fill a niche that I thought was missing in model railroading and prototype modeling. I was frustrated with the availability of kits to make turnouts quickly and easily. Commercially available turnouts are not prototypically accurate, are made of plastic, and have unsightly details that I wanted to avoid. I did not want to buy more tools than I already had to build turnouts and track work. I wanted to design and build products that look and function like the real thing. I supply turnouts and track work with unparalleled detail and accuracy All my kits are designed to allow a modeler of any skill level the ability to build museum quality turnouts and track themselves.
It's just a short video on how to install the new Roadmaster Series tie rods to a turnout. Here you can see the primary tie rod, w Larger turnouts will have more than one secondary tie rod, but for t Now you'll notice on the tie rods, on the throw bar, there is a bracket, a little, I call it a bracket. What t And one t 039 gauge piano wire. Now, in order to accept that large of a wire, we had to make to be scale, it would be half the size, but that's what we deal with modeling, right? So now let's install them. So here we have it ready go. There's just a little dot of CA where the flange of the rail will rest in there. T And we'll just straighten it up so it's in the middle. Give it a gentle push t It's that easy. Now here you can see I've just added a small dot of CA inside the channel. T So now we'll just tilt up the turnout and slide it in. And you're going to hear a little click. That way And then we'll just push it forward. You heard the click. Now the PC tie is just there to raise it up so it's easier. There you have it. And I'll show you how easily they move back and forth.
