No momentary switch needed! Using one DPDT on-on switch and a simple circuit which costs about $2.00 via Jameco.com ~ not RadioShack (which is expensive) ~ you can control the Atlas switch motor. If you understand simple electrionics and would like to build your own circuts here is what I used before I scraped it all and went with tortise. http://home.cogeco.ca/~rpaisley4/ToggleTwin.html If you don't understand electronics and would like copies of the printed circuit boards (PCB) that I designed, e-mail me (see my profile) and I'll send you copies. I have a PCB to control a single switch and one PCB, 3" by 4.5", that supports 16. The PBCs have pin outs for using LEDs on the control panel to indicate which direction the turnout is set. Using my PCBs all you need to do is buy the parts, etch the PCB and solder.
