Incorporating Marklin 24771 and 24772 -C-Track Right and Left Wide Radius Curved Turnouts

I'm planning to incorporate the Marklin 24771 and 24772 - C-Track Right and Left Wide Radius Curved Turnout into my layout.
What I'm searching for is a review or pictures of them being used.
Would you be so kind and post some pictures of these on your layout and possibly give me some information of the functionality.
All I have seen is the video from the Marklin insider cd.
Regards,
Michel

Hi Michel, I have a number of these on my tischbahn. My Big Boys manage to look reasonable on them. Here are two pics:   They are no problem for my engines, nor for cars with RP25 wheels. I operate them by hand, so I have no info on digital operation. Jeroen |

Hi Jeroen,
The Big Boy look great on your C track wide turnouts.

There was an excerpt in the Marklin Insider DVD 2016/2 This was focused on the installation and wiring to a m83.1(60831) , however there is a running sequence at the end, with a train running over the points Note: As commented at the time this shows a connection that is not supported (Marklin Trackplan Doco) and would require tweaking and makeup pieces. https://www.marklin-user...&m=539839#post539839 |

Hello Steventrain,
Thank you for posting the video. In my post I have the CD and viewed it numerous times but I can't get the picture that I'm looking for?

Would you be so kind and post some pictures of these on your layout and possibly give me some information of the functionality.
All I have seen is the video from the Marklin insider cd.
From my observations here is my conclusion:
What the video show is how to install these turnouts and the process of manufacturing them. I must add what a nice video production! It will help the novice beginner to understand how to assemble and attach the motor, lantern and decoder and how to wire it up.
They seem to be everything we would like in wide curved turnouts but can I see them installed on someones layout?

Hey Santa, "All I want for Christmas is a picture of these beautiful turnouts on a layout." Just to be on the level: We who has generally opted for 3 rail must also generally live with the Pukos, which are not prototypical but in principle, an absolute perfection for electrical conductivity. Our whole hobby is indeed made of various compromises so the Pukos I can live with. We actually have only 3 tracks that are eligible: The old M-track, the K-track and the C-track. Now that I'm opting for C track I can state that I am an absolute fan of Marklin C track!! I have perfected the weathering of C track and now I'm interested in learning more about the radii used in the C track range, the more I learn the better I can plan my new layout. Wishing all of you a Merry Christmas! Michel

Hi Michel
I have used two on my new layout. The important thing is that you need at least 2 24315 for each turnout. They are similar in function to the 24071 for the slim turnouts. Many of the plans I've seen so far (even in the Insider Magazine plans) omit them.
They work well. I bought a pair and tested them before installing them and had no issues.
Unfortunately I have no pictures yet.
Regards,
