@Dave_C posted:John, I’ve been following along. Great looking space and layout. On page 22 you show a lighted switch stand. If you have one up and running. Would love an opinion of how it functions and ease of hookup.
Hi Dave, I wish I had anything up and walking lol... That said, I did purchase one of those manual lighted throws and did run into an issue. Not certain,but clearance for the throw was an issue. I can locate it and check it out again. They are (for me) on the pricey side for sure which is a consideration I have to always contend with, as this hobby in general is not cheap. Give me a little time and I'll dig it out and re-evaluate. This time I'll write down my thoughts as the memory banks fail more often than not.
ok I found that throw and it doesn't have enough throw for ross switches. The issue is the clearance between wood ties and the throw arm. Not sure how to explain it, other than to get the full throw, some wood tie needs to be removed. I was going to call them for help, but alas real life took over and if you didn't remind me, I would continue on until I got back to switches. Hope that helps
