					<description><![CDATA[Keith,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your question is little confusing but I presume that you&#039;re asking if other brands of turnouts or switches can be used and the answer is  &quot;yes&quot;. You might have to trim or add short sections of track to each non-Atlas switch if you are using Atlas sectional track (based on the track plan) so everything will fit in the allotted space. If you are using flex track, you shouldn&#039;t have any trouble at all but just be sure that you are substituting the same size switch (eg a #4 for a #4 and a #6 for a #6) for the ones called for in the plans since the switch angle shouldn&#039;t be changed if you plan to copy the plan exactly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope this helps,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Geof from the US&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope this helps]]></description>
