Group,

I am using the Hex Frog Juicers to power 75% of the frogs on my layout, my question is How to provide some method to providing an indication of whether the turnout is set for the THRU or Dirverging direction :?: . What are most modeler's doing to provide this information :?: .

Thanks

Ed Sauers

Greetings,

I too am using the Juicers. I have not done the following yet but I plan to. I am using the manual turnouts from Fast Tracks and these come with one micro switch and room to add a second. I will will run power to the common on the provided micro switch and then off the NO and NC points. These will go back to the facia where the switch and track diagram are located. An LED will light which path the switch is currently set for.

If you are using an automatic machine I am sure there is a set of points on the board that will allow you to do the same thing.

Christopher
