Insulfrog or electrofrog?

You can see the difference in the two turnouts by looking at the rails in the area of the frogs. there will be small plastic separations beyond the frog of the insulfrog, where as the electro frog ha no break in the rails. Also, on the underside of the electrofrog frog, you'll see small wire running from the point rails to the frog and back. This is the way I tell the difference. Hope it helps. <br />***BTW, this is in regards to HO scale, I'm not sure if it's the same for N, just assuming so. <br /> <br />Rey <br /> <br />And to further the question on this topic, does the Peco switch machine include contacts for powering the frog, or is a separate relay required when using the insulfrog?
