(...) I'm not sure I agree that the voltage is variable. People have reported (via oscilloscope analysis) that it's pulse width modulated 9V instead. This will read on an analog meter like a low voltage, because it's taking the average across time. (...) (26 years ago, 8-Mar-99, to lugnet.trains)

How have you got this working? I sat down and had a long think about it last night, and played checked out my points with a multimeter to see which circuits get broken when you move the points, and I can see that you need to cut the rail on both (...) (26 years ago, 8-Mar-99, to lugnet.trains)
