I have been quite frustrated with my Peco PL-10 switch motors and Peco Code 100 turnouts. Most of the motors are located under the layout and attached directly to the turnout ties with the tabs located on the switch motor. At one time motor moves turnouts very well. YET when used another time the turnout may move briskly one way but not the other way. Other times motor is "buzzing" but no movement of turnouts. If I disconnect the motor the pin moves briskly. Or I remove the turnout and it moves freely on a manual basis. Put them together and back to erractic results. Several of these switches will be hidden by scenery and access will be difficult. Are there other brand motors that might be "stronger" or more reliable that is compatible with my Peco turnouts? Any suggestions would be appreciated. John
