Part of the magic of model railroading is being able to control turnouts by throwing a remote switch or control lever so that your trains can navigate over the rails on their way from point to point. Getting that to happen requires installing switch machines of some kind, either electromechanical or manual, to make the magic work. In this video I'll share with you how I go about installing manual Blue Point Switch Machines under the Peco Electrofrog turnouts so I can set routes from the front of the layout. These manual switch machines contain electrical switches that can be used to power the turnout frogs and maintain the correct polarity-but we'll have to make those wiring connections in the next video. So let's get started.
