HI All, wondered if you had any suggestions other than added a piece of the old tubular track.for added the trips that turn on and off the dropping of the ties.

You could try drilling a 1/4 inch hole in the molded shoulder section and use a removable 1/4 wooded dowel section to activate the trip mechanism on the Tie Jector. The more ambitious could likely come up with a dowel that was remotely activated via choke-cable operated arm from the under side of the roadbed/table.
Food for thought....

I've toyed with the idea of adding TMCC control to the Tie Jector so you could control it from the remote. The stumbling block is activating the ejector lever internally, I need to come up with the mechanism to do the job.
i like the dowel idea but the lever rotates it is not just stationary. May be the best way is to modify the track and cutting off the part that use to attach to the tubular track. I am surprise nobody has come up with a solution.

Maybe it's because Fastrack, unlike tubular, has enough ties already
If I remember correctly, the lever rotates just to move the trip from turning the 55 on or not. If that's the case, the dowel idea should work. My 55 doesn't have the trips or the ties, so I can't say with certainty if that's correct or not.
