Hello.I am new to forum and a veritable novice on everything from A to Z.I am trying to build a layout with Gargraves track.have some turnouts and was gung ho on using switch machines until I got a gander of a NJ and Tortoise.I have no clue how to hook up these and don`t know if I want to.I am afaraid of train derailing going over these.If they are not thrown all the way I am sure that would do it.Like you said,much eaiser to manually throw them and be sure it is in position.If I hook up 2 switches together,does that increase the chances of derailing or is there a trick to it?I am going to get a new ZW and a CAB1 Trainmaster for power.Any suggestions from any of you rail wizzards would sure be appreciated.Best regards to all
