Thanks, I'm aware that the Lionel FasTrack turnouts will handle scale wheeled equipment. I have the reconfigured SHS turnouts that Lionel based their design on. These are supposed to handle scale wheels.
Scale wheels will go through my SHS turnouts main route no problem, but the track gauge is narrow (per the NASG track gauge) on the point rails for the diverging routes. That's what's causing the derailments and there is no easy fix.
As the S-Trax is only a temporary solution until Fox Valley track is available again, I made an executive decision today to live with it for now.
Besides, I have a bunch of HiRail stuff that needs exercise.
BTW, I did a little re-configuring today by flipping one turnout around to make a sorta yard on the passing track, pluss added a storage siding on the open end.
