This type of operation can only be done with LGB and i do not have any trouble with MTS whatsover and i havent had for over 2 years. Your idea Mark sounded pretty sensible to me, i was interested for a while and may still hold some water. It is the track actuated points that are not working properly and I have come up with the idea that it might be to do with camber again. If the divert side is lower than the straight through side, the motor may have trouble pushing both the points and the other drive up hill; one ok but not both. I have had to use two drive units on one set of points, because if you connect the 20 V AC from the transformer across an MTS switch decoder port, it causes that port to lose its programming, and i do want the points to work both off the track and with MTS, as not only does this set of points form the nexus of an MTS reversing loop; it also provides part of the connection between area 2 and area 3. Regards ian PS I have lifted the divert side up some but i have not been able to check it with a spirit level. Don't forget this is a very advanced and technical layout; and it has to be that way due to lack of room. In area 1 i have 20 metres of track winding through jungle with 15 R1 curves in it and you have no hope with anything but LGB if you must do that.
