I had all remote machines (Atlas) on my original 4x8 layout, but on the new layout I'm using the Caboose Hobbies manual machines on all switches that are reachable from the edge, and Tortoise machines on the mainline switches that are too far from the edge to reach without knocking something over. Some of the old Atlas machines will be used in the staging yard where they're hidden from view and it doesn't matter what they look like (plus, the positive "snap" sound will let let me know the switch has thrown properly).l <br /> <br />So I guess the bottom line is go with what you like.
