[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by retsignalmtr</i> <br /><br />my clubs traveling layout has a new control panel that was just completed over the summer. it is about 18" long and 8 " high with the track diagram painted on it. it is mounted at a 45 degree angle to the layout. the area controlled by this panel has 18 switches. the switch controls are radio shack push buttons with the black buttons for the normal route and reds for the reverse positions. the block controls are dpdt switches also from radio shack. we used 25 pin male and female computer connectors to connect the panel to the layout for fast setup. the only problem was that we had to go to several radio shack stores to get enough of the things that we needed. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Thanks retsignalmtr for that info.
