Sherman Hill Turntable Question

Sherman Hill turntable..........


I don't know how to ask this so people understand. Does anyone know what the default setting is for how many degrees the tracks are separated from the center of the turntable? I found nothing in the bin file, but I have now idea what I would be looking for. I want to design my own roundhouse for the turntable. Earlier attempts were a very nice building, but it wasn't lining up all that well to the tracks coming off the turntable. It was OK in some tracks and way off on other tracks.

Thanks

Sherman Hill Turntable has 48 outlets over 360 degrees = 7.5 degrees apart.

The radius is as important as the separation angle.

Thanks. I feel a bit like an idiot..... The angle can be determined by dividing 360 by the number of outlets. DUH!! !**duh*!!
