[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by ereimer</i> <br /><br />the cab headlight doesn't control the motor in any way , it activates a relay which supplies power to the tracks leading from the turntable to the roundhouse . this is to reduce the possibility of someone just selecting an engine and driving it into the turntable pit without having set the turntable correctly <br />[/quote] <br /> <br /> ereimer is 100% correct. You must use a relay if you use the headlight switch to control track power. <br /> I was all set to bring that up last night, then my computer froze up.
