WARNING>>>> This is the machine I patterned it after. Credit to the photographer, whomever that may be.



I would point out, much as I am considering for my own layout, these would provide an excellent platform for marking turnout addresses for crews.

Never argue with idiots; they'll drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

Here are my first switch machine models as delivered to me.  I have not yet soaked them because I think the parts are more photogenic before soak. The machine is shown on the micro slide switch in the center position. It can be mounted in two additional spots as well.



Here is the matching air valve and you can see the three locating pockets for the micro switch handle:

He may not have the 55 count bag anymore, but I think I saw 20 count.
