Re: Voltage tester
Flashbang that is most helpful. Thank you very much. I primarily want to just confirm there is current running through the droppers to the track, track lengths between droppers and through the various stages between track and loco motor. The accuracy of reading is perhaps a lesser issue. End2end - h...

Re: Kit Glue

Toggle switches
I am wiring up a few insul frog points on my layout. I want to control them singly (doubly on occasions) with toggle switches on a display board. I will be using a CDU between the switches and the points (DC Bus wired) . My question is: am I better to use on-off-on toggles or (on)-off-(on) ones?
