Hi, I'm just about ready to start laying track, and I saw on another thread that putting in Tortoise Switch machines before laying the track is much easier. <br />I was also wondering what else can be put in as well before putting the track down? I plan on going the full nine yards with signalling systems, occupancy detection, crossing signals etc. <br />Also, I'd like to put in occupancy detection in a hidden helix and staging yard. Is this recommended and at what point do you locate it in the helix (beginning and end or in the middle as well)? <br />Regards
