I use PECO insulfrog code 100, Number 4, 6, curved and Ys, totalling 92 in all. Contact thru the frog are made by the points and the snap action helps keep the point againts the selected diverging track, there is also a small tab under the point that provides contact to the adjacent track (You have to make sure that the contact is positive), switch machines are used troughout aided by capacitor boosters in sets of 5 to 10 by booster. the advantage of PECO turnouts is that it can be thrown manually during switching without any harm to its mechanism. I use DCC by NCE and run three locomotive consist at a time. <br />Take care <br /> <br />imnoldman
