Just three short years ago if someone had of said to me hand laying you own turnouts I would have laughed at them with a "Yeah Right!!!"

I have now found myself looking at code 55 and getting away from code 80 and because N scale ME turnouts are hard to near impossible to get in these parts........Well here I am hand laying My turnouts with Fast Tracks jig. I love it!!!! They look good and hopefully work great too!!!:-)

I have 16 of them built and about 6 more are need then I start laying out my yard on my home layout. NOW I even am seriously looking at hand laying the rest of the track work as well. I guess maybe I have now officially gone mad!!!!!!

Thanks Fast Tracks!!!! Thanks a lot ”

I just finished installing two Bullfrog Turnout Controls on my HO layout and I have to tell you, these things are incredible. Assembly was a breeze and operation was as advertised..... perfect. Very clever and innovative design at an attractive price. Keep up the great work!! ”

Hi,

I just wanted to let you know my order arrived promptly and well packaged. I am extremely satisfied with your service and products. Fast Tracks is truly a one-stop paradise for those who choose to handlay their track. Tim, your videos and tutorials are an excellent source of information and motivation. I have never attempted any form of hand laid track up till now, but I am looking forward to many hours of fun and satisfaction. I know I will encounter some initial frustration but I know your website will always be there to provide all the impetus to persevere.
Thanks again, and best regards,

Well what fast shipping. And very well packaged too! I just ordered this the other day! I can't wait to try the frog and point filer and the soldering jig out. I've handlaid for many years now and this just gives me an excuse to do even more. The free CD on templates and stuff that you included in the mailing was very thoughtful as well. I'll let you know of my progress from time to time and even include some photos. Thanks again....Sterling Stump. ”

Just a few weeks away from full retirement and getting into some serious track laying...
I have received my order and the back ordered materials and I have to say I was impressed with the service and care taken in their shipping and protection. Also very impressed with the products supplied and I look forward to some mass production! Very much appreciated! Just noted the turnout control products ... I can see another order coming up soon.
Cheers, Mike ”

I bought a #6 and #4 switch, they work great, I'm on my third order. my next order will be for straight track. I have built 6 of each an they are so easy, great job Fast track team. ”

Hi Tim,

I just assembled (yes, I'm cheap - and it took all of 10 minutes to build) my first Bullfrog - simple, strong and simply the best manual turnout control I have seen.

I want to commend you for a design that offers an affordable alternative to all turnout motors (manual or otherwise).

With the long throw (I have almost 2 1/2" from the bottom of the bench work to the to top of the roadbed) and easy mounting - heaven! Mated with my Fast Tracks #4 turnouts - a dream come true - the beauty of your turnout design plus a strong, reliable motor.

Cheers to you and this design - a bargain at twice the price!

Congrats,

Tim Barnes ”

I just wanted to drop you an email and let you know how impressed I am with my entire Fast Tracks experience. Your website is easy to navigate, the online documentation is superb and your products are even better. I received my Fast Tracks turnout template yesterday and within a few hours I had made a turnout. After watching the online videos I felt like it was second nature despite never having completed one myself. If only everything was this smooth and easy!

I work with several model railroaders and all were equally impressed by the fixture and today with the result of my first attempt. Hoping that pays dividends for your team in the future!

Again, very impressive workmanship and overall experience. Thanks for delivering a great product! ”

I do not normally write things like this but the service I received was first rate. I had email updates to let me know the status of my order and my parcel was shipped within 24 hours. I received the well-wrapped parcel about a week later which is fantastic. I am now keen to get started hand laying the next section of track. I will definitely buy from these guys again. ”

Tim, Ron, and Terry,
I just used the Rail Bender for the 1st time to make a "Curved" Dual Gauge #6 code 70 and also two HOn3 #6 Code 70 "Curved" turnouts. I have to say that when I set the Rail Bender Gauge, it was pretty darn accurate each time. If there was a slight difference, I contend that the difference was due to the rail tolerances. The Rail Bender actually made the curved turnouts fun to do.
The Rail Bender should be on everyone's work table, it's worth every cent.

Thanks and have a great day, all

Hello Tim and Fast Tracks company. I received my order yesterday in excellent condition with first rate packaging. Your tools are first rate as well as your web site. Can't wait to start building turnouts. Super product for all model railroaders. Many thanks form a very satisfied customer. Ray Levesque Bowdoinham, Maine ”

Tim, Ron, Terry.... The jigs and supplies came a couple of days ago and I started making 6 of the 16 variations of the #6 Dual HO/HOn3 turnouts that I need for my layout. The products you sell are fantastic and the finished products are top-quality turnouts. Thanks, Glen ”

Received my order. Got everything I asked plus I particularly like the packaging. First class. And love the track side advertising. They say get this or that because its cheaper, but there's no substitute for quality, and looking at what I received, the quality is obvious. Thank you. Regards, Terry ”

Hi, Fast Track Team I would like to let you know that I have received the 3 orders and that everything is perfect. I've tried a couple of turnouts #6, #8 and I just finished my fist slip switch #8 and I should say FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Perfect function and aesthetic.

Best products ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congratulations.

I just want to compliment you on your entire setup from the web site to the final product - first class. I placed some rail in the fixtures to see how they would fit and like magic I can see how this is going to make my life easier. ”

I received the package yesterday, and it arrived unscathed. Inside the box was a lot of well packed... high quality!

I have worked in a CNC machine shop, and also owned a Universal Laser machine, and I appreciate the design effort and work that have gone into your products. Your website, although it too is one of the best I've ever used, doesn't do justice to the actual product.

Thank you for such an amazing contribution to the hobby. ”

I have now built and installed about 12 S/Sn3 dual gauge turnouts, and Sn3 #6 turnouts. I still have about 10 to go.

The actual construction of the turnout takes some time, but the installation is a breeze. Each and everyone is perfectly in gauge and, as a result, operate flawlessly. ”

The assembly jig and filing jig both work like magic. I'm very impressed with the entire kit and think it's the best value for money model railroad tool(s) I've bought in my 26 years of modeling -and you can quote me on that!! ”
