FasTrack Turnout Controllers | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Tom HOGR Forum Member

Did a search and didn't find the answer. I'm planning a FasTrack layout and will have about 8 remote turnouts (switches). Haven't heard much about the controllers that come with the turnouts. Do you like them? Or should I plan to replace them with standard momentary contact switches?

The controllers work fine, but so do momentary switches. The choice is entirely up to you. You can drive a single bi-color LED with the signal wire from the switch if you do your own switches.

If you like that '50's look, line 'em up and use 'em.

I think those look really nice, I've always liked these.
