Hey all,
While at the NMRA show this past July I was talking with a few people about the
custom switches I make and I was given a challenge. In short the challenge was
to make these:
Now that I have some free time I would like to take on this challenge but I need
your help. Knowing that the modifications are going to be very challenging I do
not want to use new switches. Rather I would prefer to use broken and or damaged
switches for the first prototypes. This is where I need your help.
If you happen to have broken or damaged switches your willing to donate or if
your willing to sell them for a nominal fee please email me at:

You'd have to have some way to ensure both aren't set to reverse (curved) at the same time, and a reliable way to direct the train when both are normal (straight). (...)
