Wow very well explained and esigned.Your setup is gonna be awsomewhen your finished.With this method of atlas switching and atlas relays can you still have autoroute? Or only with tortoise and hare/wabbit?

[flymanjg]

Only with the Tortoise and hare combo. I removed all of the Atlas switchmachine/relays and went with %100% Tortoise.

Another great video. I'm curious though, why not use the atlas under the table switch machines? They are pretty low profile.  Not as user friendly perhaps?

[flymanjg]

I removed all of the Atlas switch machines and went with Tortoise and remote activators. See followup videos. The atlas under the table switch machines do not have enough hold power. The rod flexes.
