I am building a walk-along HO switching layout with Atlas Custom code 83 turnouts. I want to use manual ground throws to throw the turnouts. Walthers makes a variety of sprung ground throws. Which travel length / model should I use for my turnouts? Many thanks.
I like the Caboose Ind 202S for my Atlas CL code 83 turnouts http://www.cabooseind.com/index2.php?page=GroundThrows ratled
Here's how Wolfgang Dudler does it. I highly recommend his website. Go to the bottom for the latest in positive turnout control.
