Reply to "How to VID: Prevent Stalling on Atlas Turnouts and Slips Using Tortoise Switch Machines to Power Route"

If anyone using the double slip switch decides to use the closure rails (4) to improve performance you will find the (4) closure rails come with the rails connected by copper strips to the edge of the ties allowing you to solder your feeder wires directly to the copper tab eliminating the need to solder to each of the four rails. This change was added to all double slip switches starting with the last run. Earlier versions will need to have the feeder wires attached directly to the closure rails. You do not need to remove the switch motors to access the copper tabs. You can also visit the Atlas website to find wiring instructions on using the non-derail circuit board item # 6924 to provide the needed wiring similar to the Tortoise motors used with this thread. If anyone has questions on how to wire this application you can contact me at 908-687-0880 ext 7142. If anyone will be attending York this week I will be there for the show.... stop by.
