AutoControls #663: Auto. Switching Block at 2010 ECLSTS

A.SUMMARY: The video shows an AutoControls.org Model 206 "Automatic Switching Block" operating on the Washington, Virginia, & Maryland GRS's display at the March 2010 East Coast Large Scale Train Show. This control unit controls 3 trains on the same track (plus the handcar which can be considered sort of an "extra".)
* AutoControls.org (aka James Ingram) wishes to THANK the WVMGRS for allowing me to demonstrate this system on their display layout, and to THANK member JEFF MITULLA for use of his video footage and photos, which you will be viewing in this video.
