Hey all,

Well my sickness continues, this time I bring you the 3-way switch. Taking over a month and two pairs of switches “I had to do it twice” this switch is really something different. Here’s some details:





-Both outer lines, sidings if you will, are still able to switch off like an unmodified switch. I have however found that not being able to shut off the middle track is kind of a pain and I’m considering adding a switch.

-Trains of all sizes and lengths have no trouble traversing it

-There are over 8 individual modifications in this one switch

-It was a royal pain to make and I spent most of the month ripping my hair out over it.

-I will not make another but I am considering making more double crossovers.

Anyway I figured I’d share. Thoughts?

P.s. It is all ready sold, sorry. Beleive it or not it’s going to china.
