Good morning, if I can throw out an idea that I used at one time on my HO  
scale layout, I took a piece of Atlas flex track, marked the bottom of the ties  
with a scribe (on the fixed tie side), to the correct length, keeping the 
rail  centered. I then cut the ties and had a ready made piece of single  rail 
flex track (ties and all)for the turntable pit. I then used a small  drill bit 
and drilled through the plastic ties and fixed into place with  regular track 
brads. I also used a regular rail joiner for the connection of the  two ends 
where they met. It worked out very well and cost only the price of the  single 
piece of track (about $3.00).
