I have a 180-degree curve made up of 8 sections of 22-degree radius EZ track...

I want to replace one curve section with a turnout...which one will fit best?

Any additional "short sections" needed?

A #4 turnout with  1/2 22" radius would get you close but not exact because there was a little bit of fudging on this one.
Feel like a Mogul.

Here's one with the turnout close to the straight. #4 turnout, 2 2" and 1 1" straight.
Feel like a Mogul.

Here it is with #5 turnout. 1 1/2 22" radius, 2 1 1/4", and 1 1" straight.
Feel like a Mogul.

This is with a #6 tunrout. 1/2 22" radius, 1/3 33 1/4" radius, 2 2", and 1 1" straight.
Feel like a Mogul.

Here's one more with a #6 turnout. 1 33 1/4" radius curve and 1  2 1/4 straight.

I finally got it to work in SCARM...

Using a LH #4 as the 8th curve then replacing the #7 curve with an 18-degree curve

4.5" and 2.25" complete the oval

I'm glad you go it to work. I was using Anyrail.
