Well... I spent all day yesterday laying down 6 engine tracks, wiring, and putting on/off switches to each one so's I can turn them off while the locos await their tour of duty..., and I go to try each one out. Turns out the bridge on the turntable has about 1/8" of "slop", it can move (in the "direction" it came from), so, even a minor move of the engine as it crosses from the table to the track will cause the bridge to move and derail the engine.... 
Also, power to the bridge is intermittent, so driving on or off requires a little "help" to move the engine.... 
Does anyone here have one of these, and how does it work for you..?? Any hints or tips to make the @%@$* thing work right..??
