How many are using Lionel SC-2's and/or Lionel ASC's with Atlas Turnouts

IC Controls before Lionel. One SC-2

And Atlas 6924 Switch relay boards. 

I have used ASCs originally from Lou Kovach and then from Lionel to operate up to 30 some ATLAS switches right out of the box. If I recall correctly one has to program it as momentary vs constant so as not to burn out the switch motor. The only issue was with the Atlas switches if they weren't lying flat and therefore would bind up. Best of luck.

I mounted my Atlas switch controllers next to the switches they operate ('skirting switches') and decided I liked them this way. Forgot all about the command control ideas I had originally. No TMCC controls, but I was going to use an MTH AIU to control them. Never bought one. Maybe someday, but they are fine for me as they are.

Personally, I would try the skirting switches and see what you thought of using them that way. You can always add the command control at a later time. If you still want to add command control, having both ways to control the switches might come in handy. 

If setup correctly you can use both command and the skirt switches.  I have not done so yet, but I have been doing research on the subject myself as I want to control my Atlas switches with TMCC/Legacy.

I use the SC2's with DZ1000 machings with absolutely no problems. I also use them with the atlas snap relay which is the same principal as their switch machines. The DZ1002 push buttons can also be wired in with the above DZ1000.

I am going to try the SC-2's.  Thanks guys.
