Hi All ,

I have a bunch of Atlas switch motors (and a way to use them under table).

Has anyone used these motors with either the solid or hinged Fast Tracks turnouts?

I would be happy to share my under table motor design (if you are a CARM member, its in the Canadian).

Cheers,

Tim

Hi all,

I built my first #4 HO turnout and tested it with my Atlas Under-table motor. Alas, there was not enough torque to hold the points open, so it looks like I might have to try a hinged turnout - I will keep you posted.

Cheers,

Tim Barnes
