Hi All:

First, my English is not the best, I try to translate my notes

The signals are from Weinert (ref 7234, 10 signals), mounted in a #6 point.

The mechanism is made with plastic profiles (Plastruct), brass tube and wire (K&S) and mini screws (Kadee).

Here are a general view compared with a servo

Details of the mechanism

Here you can see a sequential shoot of the signal rotating according Tortoise moving.

I have a home made decoder with a voltage regulator to 6V, the result is a slow movement of 5 seconds .

Wait for your comments

Regards
Claudio Botello

Greetings,

Very well done! I bet that same construction could be used for other turning singals.
