GRJ--The reason I went with the DZ-2500 is their small size. I knew I was never crawling under the layout--not with these remains of what used to be a decent human body--so all the switch machines will be visible--just like old-fashioned Lionel!

Under table switch machines would have taken a lot more time, truthfully I just didn't want to spend the amount of time it would take to use the Tortoise switch machines, my top choice for under table models. It's the same reason I have the Atlas turntable, it installed in a flash where other turntables would have been structural work and a lot more time to support the pit and get it installed properly.

One aspect of the DZ-2500 that I like is the indicator of switch position on each switch, I can see at a glance if a route is proper.
