I just went to Atlas O website and located the 6924 Non-Derailing Board for $28.95 each.  I place the number 10 in the cart and the website said they have "0".  The item is backordered.  Glad I bought some five years ago. 

You are probably way ahead of me on all this, but along with their new signal system, I thought Atlas was also redesigning the 6924 boards? However, upon looking at their website, I found the new signal system, but no sign of a new 6924, only the old one that is out of stock and backordered. So I came up short on that thought.

I was trying to add the 6924 boards to a pair of new Atlas switches last winter. I reached out to Atlas and received a very prompt email that the 6924 boards were gone and would not be restocked in the future. Maybe something has changed since then. My solution was to swap the Atlas switch motors out for Z1000s which have built-in anti-derail capability and cost about the same as the 6924 boards.
