I posted how I did my manual turnout control here: http://www.the-gauge.net/forum/viewtopic...=15#p76571
Works well, didn't take too long to do (once I had one figured out) and used materials I had on hand. I will likely do the same on the rest of my layout as I build it. I'm using Peco turnouts, but plan to handlay the rest as pre-built turnouts are too expensive (rather save my money and buy a DCC system).
Have seen though others that use rotary knobs instead of the push-pull knobs - something I plan to try.
