If you want anything other than a circle track layout for your Lionel O-Gauge 3 Rail layout, you must have a turnout switch. In fact I would recommend a pair of them, one left hand and one right hand. This gives you a great deal of flexibility in how you arrange you track layout. Switches are perhaps the single most important track accessory you can buy. And the O31 curve is gradual enough to allow good turnouts at relatively higher speeds without worrying about derailing. And on top of that, Lionel makes their switches with an auto derailing prevention mechanism so that in case you come into a switch with it set in the wrong position, the switch will correct itself as the train goes through it. No crashes just because the "engineer" was sleeping at the switch!
