I am considering replacing my Lionel Fastrack switch machine control lever (which is quite large) with a smaller one that could be placed on a layout control pannel. This would make it possible to have the switch controller appear on a control pannel track schematic, at the location on the track map where the switch is located.
An example of what I want is shown below, taken from an old form post:
I have already replaced some of the big black pushbutton box with a small pushbutton, as the big black box supplied by Lionel is just an oversized pushbutton.
However, I believe there may be more in the fastrack switch controller. There is also the need to have an idicator light to show which way the switch is thrown (which is part of the switch controller that comes with fastrack). My current control pannel with the original Lionel switch controler is shown below:
Has anyone done this with fastrack switches, and how do you do it?
Thanks for any help on this topic
