Electric turnouts


I finally got all the switches on my layout wired. It took about 10min per switch and there are 9 on the layout over the course of a couple weeks when I could find a few min to spare but in the end it was worth it. Now it is possible with ease to do some shunting in the inner junction to build a train for the mainline.  A few more items and it will rarely require the magic giant hand from the sky to come down and manually intervene.

Next step:

  • Standardize couplers
  • Uncoupling magnet
  • Ballast the tracks
