Hey guys,
thanks for all the replies. I never did think about building my own turnouts and swithes (that would be saving me a ton of money). Something I'm gonna have to look at into the near future. For now though, I think I'm gonna stick with the Shinohara switches. I've never had any problems with them before, I've got plenty on hand, and they seem easy enough to use with my Caboose Hobbies ground throws (would be nice if they could make the ground throw switches actual HO Scale size - and still be operational), but oh well. Now.. I've gotta look at how to wire up a Helix....
