### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ complete bender
*by S***W on 19 February 2022*

For me these did just suit as I was using fkexi track between but the angles on these turnouts are too rigid and hornby do not have an answer for this except flexi track so my advice is use express inline turnouts not corner ones keep it simple do no gaps when joining track
