I'm just getting back to the hobby after a 25 year gap. I decided to restart with all new equipment, so I'm doing N-scale, Atlas code 55 track, DCC. Layout is mostly together, and now I need to choose an under table switch machine for the mainline switches. I remember the loud sound of the old "fast" switch machines and want quiet, slow ones instead. <br /> <br />So here's the question. What is the best slow under table switch machine? I want something small, quiet, easily mounted, low power requirement, adjustable throw. I'm looking for replies from people who have used more than one type and can provide comparisons. From research I've noticed the following differences, but don't know how much they matter - always powered "stall" control versus switched; screw/worm versus standard gear; kit versus pre-assembled. <br /> <br />Thanks in advance for the help! <br /> <br />Brent
