There is a post further down the list about B6 turnout geometry.
A B6 turnout in Templot is about 140mm long and a B8 is about 160mm long. The fiNetrax B6 is very close to a B6 drawn in Templot.
If you are considering using fiNtrax turnouts and plain track I suggest that you consider using Templot for your layout design.
It may be misleading to think of the turnouts as being a particular length in the way that commercially produced turnouts such as Peco are quoted. The way they are incorporated into a layout design is probably more important since they may be constructed with longer lengths of rail to give better alignments.
By the way - it's nice to sign your posts in a forum with your name.
Regards.
