The Kato 24-840 Turnout Control Switch represents the pinnacle of N-scale model railroad technology, combining effortless integration with advanced functionality. Designed by Kato, a brand synonymous with quality and innovation in the model train industry, this switch stands out for its user-friendly design. It is engineered to clip directly onto the side of the Kato Controller, ensuring a secure and straightforward setup. By simply plugging the point lead into the socket at the rear, enthusiasts can enjoy a fully working electric point. Its unique clip-together feature allows for the creation of a “bank” of switches powered by a single source, streamlining your setup and enhancing the control over your model railroad.
One of the most remarkable features of this switch is its memory setting, which safeguards the operational integrity of your track layout. If the point is changed manually, the switch remembers the last position, ensuring that it will only activate when it’s correctly aligned. This innovative feature minimizes disruptions and enhances the overall reliability of your model railroad, making it an indispensable tool for hobbyists aiming for precision and ease in their setups.
