    PECO 3 way code 100 med turnout

    PECO 3 way code 100 med turnout

    Has anyone used this particular turnout? I want to purchase this turnout, but cannot find out which switch machine to buy. Will the Atlas undertable switch machines work? I have no experience with 3 way turnouts. I currently use Atlas turnouts and undertable machines to power them
