Blue Switch \ Points Machine.

[centenary]

Watching another Larry Puckett YT vid and he's using a nifty little gadget for switching points on his UK style exhibition build. They're called Blue Switch Machines and available in the US for about $12-$15 a pop.

They dont seem to be available in the UK although I was able to find a couple of UK sellers who had but are currently out of stock. Anyone used these? Is there a similar UK styled product? Im intending using Dave Fenton's MegaPoints Controller but I thought these could be useful if I just had a couple more points to switch rather than but another MPC board.

Are these the ones which are not actually motors, just a fancy switch ?

Yes they are indeed basically point operation and switch via a wire in tube operation.

EDIT: To correct original text which was wrong!

I must be reading a different description. There is no motor, just a cable to operate the internal pivot and throw a switch for frog polarity etc.

Scroll through the pictures in the link I gave, one of which shows the WIT arrangement.
