74491 Electric Turnout Mechanism (C Track)

Electric Turnout Mechanism (C Track)

This is an improved kit for upgrading C Track turnouts. It has a double solenoid mechanism with end shut-off contacts. It can be operated from an accessory controller (example: 72720) or by means of a digital decoder (74461). A feedback function is possible with the 7271/72710 accessory controllers. This electric mechanism can be installed and connected on turnouts very easily without special tools. The mechanism sits hidden in the roadbed; below-baseboard mounting is not required. It is encapsulated against dirt and is protected against overloads with the end shut-off contacts. The mechanism can be controlled by means of a normal accessory controller, an accessory controller with a feedback function, or a digital decoder. The hand lever can be left on the turnout for manual control.
