<p>[quote user="iandor"] Now if you are talking about electrically operated points (switches) be aware that they aren't all that onterchangable. LGB work off about 18V+ AC and other s off DC and stillothers work off DC and are directional.[/quote]</p><p>I was planning on using Aristo switches. Their switches don't come with electrics built in (other than the 2' radius switches, which I'm trying to avoid), but they do appear to have a remote switch kit you can add on to their own or LGB switches. I was planning on using this kit because I eventually wanted to get the Train Engineer system and I figured it would be sure to work with the TE switch receivers. Is this right?</p><p>Thanks for your help!</p><p> </p>
