I have used Atlas Nscale code 80 switches for years. From my experience, I have drawn two conclusions. 1.) The electric remote switches switch machines always burn out after a few years. Usually sooner. 2.) Atlas switches have always performed well for me when they are used with groundthrows. My current layout has all groundthrow switches so I've used Atlas. One other problem with Atlas electric switches is that they do not lock into position well so derailments are common. If I build another layout that has remote/electric switches, I won't use Atlas. If the switches are all ground throws. I'll use Atlas. <br />
