My AOTW is a bit off track....
Having to re-do the inner line siding on the EVRR layout to accommodate the Faller coal mine, I pulled up the previously nailed-down track and was deciding what I could do to make more room, when I remembered this special curved turnout track that I held on to forever. It is made by Casadio in Italy, a RH curve with radius 22" & 18". Needless to say, it was a perfect fit and allowed me to even make a smaller siding to switch/store a freight car beside the factory!

Thuse were readily available from many brands in the 70s. Unfortunately they are no longer made by anybody that i know of. They're like the #4 and #6 double slips. Once common, now hard to find.
Fortunately, I can build my own. They do come in handy for situations like yours.

Thank you all.
Yeah, I was gonna say....I don't see many new curved turnout tracks, but they can come in handy, big time. That's great you can make and lay your own track too.
