Description

Walthers Layout Control System brings you a low-cost solution for easy turnout control for HO, N, Z, S, and O Scale layouts with this five-pack of Switch Machines! The Layout Control System is expandable at any time to grow with your layout, and can be used with DCC- or DC-power - and switch machines feature optional DCC operation. The system uses plug-and-play servo-style wiring with connectors, so no soldering is needed; two styles of cables are available separately to expand your wiring as needed. User-friendly instructions are included with all items, and drilling templates for easy mounting on your layout or fascia are included as appropriate. Using combinations of the system components, which include a servo-based slow-motion Switch Machine, Power Distribution Block, LED panel indicator-control pushbutton switches, add-on system cabling, a 2-amp 12V Filtered DC Power Supply and a three-piece drill set, you can easily build a complete control system.

    • Great value - 5 Layout Control System Switch Machines for one low price!
    • Easy turnout control for HO, N, Z, S, and O Scale layouts

      • Factory-assembled with output rod in centered position for fast & easy under benchwork mounting

    Walther's Switch...

    Posted by Kelly Russell on 6th Jul 2024

    The Walther's switch machines are a great product. They are just as easy to install as a tortoise, but have the built-in capability to drive bi-color panel lights and accept push button input. They can also be setup to respond to DCC input as well. There is also a pair of contact switches that can be used to power the frog or provide input to a signal system. The really cool feature are the connection wires, NO soldering is necessary, just plug and play. The Walther's tech team is always there to answer any questions you may have as well. Highly recommended!

    Posted by Jeffrey Jackson on 27th Mar 2024

    I bought the 5 pack of the switch machines and am very pleased. Instructions are straightforward and easy to install. I’ll be buying more in the future. Midwest Model Supply is quick to ship and is my go go to supplier.
