You forgot to add in the cost of a stationary decoder which can range from $8-$20/turnout.It would be nice if they sold these minus the turnout so you could install them yourself and save some $$$. I also wonder what the lifespan of that little switch motor is?
my bad.
I did a search first, but didn't seem to work.
This question came up last week.
