A. SUMMARY: This video shows the AndermanFlyer.com reed switch and relay system for controlling American Flyer S-gauge switches, to operate an automatic passing siding. This layout was part of the 2011 Toy Train Expo in Williamsport, Pennsylvania. Notice the great scenery that Mark's wife Doris created for a layout that was operated just 2 days.

That's a fine layout. Lots of work for a 2-day display but the video can be enjoyed forever! - Ed

Don't care if it's not prototypical. I loved it.
