RE: Your question on switches. With the Gargraves, and Ross, prewired switches the instructions that came with the DZ1000 switch machines give instructions on wiring the non-derailing feature. It intails cutting in a section of insulated rail before the switch.

No, Bob, it doesn't. Not exactly, anyway.

I edited my post with the word "Stainless steel" & changed it to "solid steel" last night. So, yes, I did make the last post, but it wasn't in response to Roger Bielen's post

Perhaps the forum software should distinguish between the two types of posts & report only when a new post is added to a thread?

In any event, there's an old programmer's maxim I like to quote:

The last bug in a system disappears when the last user stops using it.
