Hello:
I'll be using BullFrogs on several turnouts that are offset to the fascia, i.e. the control rod would have to go diagonally if it were to go straight to the turnout.
It's obvious that the knob must be located perpendicular to the fascia so the control rod must curve fairly sharply (although not too sharply, there's at least 35" to the turnout).
In this situation, can the control bend to suit or should the control rod curve very gently and a TadPole be used to correct the remaining offset? The photos show the TadPole routing the control rod around the corner, which is what I'd have to do if I couldn't curve the control rod that much.
Attached is a snippet of my track plan to illustrate what I mean.
Thank you,
Mark
