There are a few places I wish I had bi directional position lights like you now have even though they are not prototypical. One of these days (years?) I need to put the wood veneer I had cut on the exposed wood surfaces of the layout.
It really is a shame neither SHS nor MTH made turnouts with the wider radius diverging track. At least we have the Lionel 27"R turnouts and the pre-made #5's from Fox Valley.
