Modeling BNSF and Milwaukee Road in SW Wisconsin
QUOTE: Originally posted by jrbernier I used automotive 'choke cables' recessed in the facia on my layout. That was 18 years ago when they only cost a $ 1.89 each. They now are about $ 5-6 each!. Also, they seem to get crud in the cabling and get 'stiff' over the years. I am currently replacing them with Caboose Industries 'high level' switch stands. The few turnouts that are a 'stretch' to reach now have Tortoise motors. Jim Bernier
