Something of Interest, Perhaps...Finescale European Trackage!

Just type in  MaGo fiNe

I'm not sure why this is offered, as European models have such large flanges, but I though it might be of interest anyway...

Could you please supply a link? Searching the phrase in multiple engines has been fruitless, at least for me.

The mistake you're making is in assuming that this is for RTR models. Finescale modellers accept that rolling stock wheels will need to be turned down to meet the standards.
See my experiments on the subject: https://www.therailwire.net/forum/index.php?topic=33072.msg377678#msg377678

Thanks! The site challenged my high school German, but I muddled through.

200 Euros for a finished #18 turnout? Yi yi yi. :scared:

I cant find finished turnouts.... All I can find is free shipping on orders over 160 Euro....
Photos would also be helpful.

You're looking for "Fertigweiche" in the pop-up menus next to each picture.

Why not use Google translate to view the page in any language you want?  For me it usually does good enough of a job.  I guess Chrome browser will automatically translate (I don't use it).

Ah, thank you, I missed the menus.

Odd that there are no photos of the actual product.  The weird line drawings look like there was a photo filter applied to them.

Rather curious... would be nice if Code 40 turnouts were available as well as some of the more specialized turnouts in Code 55 but even with Google Translate there is some things not defined, making it a bit more difficult to determine what exactly you are getting...

I checked out the page. They are selling ties, precut PCB ties. If you use the drop down menu, you will see that you also can order the template. There templates cover pre-federal German Railroad as well as modern switches but with accurate angles.
There is a website about the fiNe-scale movement here (English):
http://www.fs160.eu/index.php

If anybody needs some parts translated (not bablefished), I am happy to do it.
