Rich: The third SMINI will be located at the same location as one of the other SMINI's. The current power supply will only be 18 inches away, so I should be...

Uwe, I use relays or micro swtiches, not Tortoises, but the theory is the same: Personally, I use a single relay contact which closes when the turnout is...
I am looking for a IBEC card and an IOMB. Dr. Chubb suggested that I ask here for he is out of them right now. Is there anyone out there that might have them...

I have a facebook account, but I've been avoiding it because all I get is a bunch of garbage from people I've never heard of. I don't see an obvious search...
