Building a traverser / transfer table
#6
Hi...I built a table just like that one to serve as a "fiddle" yard for incoming traffic to the layout. It's not "active" yet as tha layout is still in the building stage, but I made provisions to power every track (4) with a rotary switch. As it's kinda' hefty, I mounted it on drawer slides, and use an "indexing" bar held in place by a metal pin that aligns the tracks perfectly. On the transfer end I placed a rerailer sawn in half on every track to prevent any mishap from ocurring while crossing the gap between the table and the lead....
