I am fed up with these crossover derailments.
Since Bachman makes a good "riivted turnout" (no problems) i would like to know if they make (corrected) crossovers with the directional rails "rivited" also?
Or is there a web address (or person) for technical service for Bachman.
I dont believe this problem with these EZ-track #6 crossovers are an isolated problem to me only??
OR does anyone know a remedy to this problem that can help?
The main problem i see is the movable (directional ) rail is only held down at the front under a plastic clip and the piviting point is not held into the track at all, in fact it just floats in the hole, and pops up as the train wheels cross it and derails the cars. ( i have tried 4 loco's, and many train cars over all 4 of the crossovers i have on my current layout, they all derail at some time very few the same cars or loco's.)
Is this an "old" style that they have since improved? or is this the way they are all made as i just recently purchased these 4, (2 left and 2 right) 2 weeks ago?
Any help will be greatly appriciated,
denny
