If the Atlas switch throw bars can be adapted to the Tortoise switch machines that would be great. My layout is 36 years old built with Gargraves track, Ross switches and Tortoise switch machines. They are truly bullet proof and are mounted out of sight unlike the large Atlas switch machines. The Tortoise demand little power and 10-20 machines can be driven by a single wall wart. In addition, using bicolor LED's you can create on your control panel a route map showing where switches are located and how they are positioned. The Tortoise is an American made product and is fantastic. After you get the hang of it they can be installed in 20-30 minutes each. They are also slow moving and constantly hold the points. Simply, the best in the industry for many years.
