Anyone has experience with Thiel turnouts/switches?

[jose07]

Hello everybody,

I have found recently a track maker named Thiel, they have rail tracks in brass, code 333, compatible with LGB, with curved switches. I was wondering if any of you have any experience with them.

regards
Jose

my whole layout is THIEL.

U can take a look at it on the site on the link below "images"-section.
I have more of the pics here on my computer.

thank u for your kind words.

I know THIEL stuff just as very fine made and out of doubt definitetly worth money, even though its a bit mor expensive than the LGB stuff.

But it begins with the simple switches having straight branchrails from the frog and ends on the curved switches NOT working with a straight rail and two same diameters, or having two different exactly matching diameters like prototypical.

I have a 3000mm/2000mm switch in my layout and must say its the best one i have:
