Thank you to everyone for your input.  This has been very helpful.
I too believe the partial curve track that returns a turnout to parallel
with the straight portion should be included with the turnout package.
At the very least, the track which accomplishes this task should be made
and identified in the catalogue.

I'm aware that when using the Bachmann #5 turnout, a 1/2 length 22" radius curve
track will return the curve portion of the #5 turnout parallel with the straight portion.
Is there similarly one piece of track that will accomplish the same with the #6 turnout?

I am considering using Bachmann #6 turnouts from the Snap Fit EZ Track for a new HO layout.  Will I be able to run any size engine with these turnouts?  What track from the Snap Fit EZ Track line will make the turn portion of the turnout return back to parallel with the straight portion?
