the wiring will depend on what type of turnout control you will use...if you use DC motor type turnouts like the circuitron tortoise then the lights can be wired to the built in DP/DT
switch or directly to the turnout wiring if you use LED's...if you use the coil type tunout machine like the Atlas UTTSM, then you'll have to install an Atlas relay in parallel with the Atlas momentary push button...please send me your e-mail address and i'll send you some diagrams on how to wire the panel lights....chuck

Wiring CTC type switches ?

Can anyone tell me where I can find a wiring diagram that shows how to wire a
CTC style switch knob like the ones Rix products produces ? What I want to do
is wire the switch so that the lights above the CTC knob light up correspondingly
to the track alignment. or the track signals.
Is there a website or book that can tell me how to accompli***his ?
Thanks,
FAdkins
The Rock Island lines live on..... well, in my basement at least.
