The realtrax switches have been great for days! I'm ready to take the next risk. I have a siding where both switches run off 1 switch. Can I reliably use the trains as the switch? I did it once, each way and it worked great. I don't want to make it a practice, if anyone has experience,where this method is unreliable. I think I'm just completing the switching circuit in another place. The switches are supported well on firm carpet. The one train has a snow plow, so there is no weight issue going into that half of the Wye. The other is a fairly hefty Berk.
