I am at the point now, with the occasional stall, of wiring my frogs, I am using Atals Code55 track (N Scale) and have Caboose Ind ground throws (non-power routing type) and have seen how-to's for using a slide switch, choke cable type setups etc, but have also seen posts on other forums about using a micro switch, but not any how-to's on the setup.
I would like to keep the current Caboose ground throws I have and use some type of switch/contact to route the rail to the frog. Anyone have any out of the box ideas I could try? Normally the stalls have been very few, but with those new Atals MP15's, the wheel base is pretty short, the engines are light as feathers, but fantastic runners that look even better, they tend to stall more often.
The Atlas turnouts have a small spade on the straight section by the from to solder to, so that isn't the problem. Mainly wondering what I could do to power them without ripping out the current setup.
Thanks
