Hi folks, point related question... One of my insulfrog turnouts is a bit dodgy in that one of the points isn't making a good connection with the stock rail. When I apply a tiny bit of pressure to the point against the stock, the current passes through no problem. It definitely isn't dirt/dust. It's almost as if the points need widened ever so slightly to push against the stocks. I've tried a tiny piece of styrene placed between the point rails, which does the trick to widen it ever so slightly, but obviously raises the risk of derailments. Any ideas as to how to sort this without tearing up the turnout??
