No this is to do with automatically operating points (switches) to deliver an apparent random pattern of operation through a complex set of points and physical environment. This is to do with the complexity of my alyout. <br /> <br />It starts off with completely automating two LGB MTS reversing loops, ie when the loco goes around either loop, irrespective of its appearance, direction, size or shape the points will always be set so that the loco will hit the points with them in the correct alignment. <br /> <br />This will be taken much further when i get my next extension done connecting my area 3 up to the middle of a reversing loop in area 1 with an "el" running right across area 2, which includes an 8 metre salt water swimming pool and many tropical ferns and palms to wend its way through. <br /> <br />The logic behind the siting and polarity of the track actuated switches is very involved and head causing to do. <br /> <br />Our local importer has read my article and he is going to offer it to Depetsch to publish. Some have already asked for a copy and it is available form me just send me an email. <br /> <br />Rgds ian
