Love my Ross turnouts (and Gargraves too). As others have said, very well made and they look great. Trains go over them like they aren't there.
Adriatic posted:The speed of point movement/motor speed between "scale" and Lionel snap-speed motors in turnouts made us finally put Lionel turnouts back in by the 80s. A lot of work doing Ross imo (relays etc). I've had great experiences with larger Lionel turnouts; good enough, always simple .
The younger kids highballing needed a faster anti derail feature than "Tortoise types" could manage
Here was my approach to the switch motor for my Ross turnouts:
An Arduino-based DCC Turnout Controller
So I have slow motion of the points under normal circumstances, but with a fast throw when needed for the non-derail.
