OK, I am gradually converting to battery power. What this has done for me is allow me to actually operate my trains in a more hands on fashion. Until this year, I was strictly track powered and went with the hands off operation method. I have some automated running,m if I use track power, where more than one train operates on the same track. Each train controlling one another via 17100 reed switches and point motors etc. Now that I am on battery power, I want to control some of those same point motors using the LGB 51750 momentary control box.
Is there any reason why I can't control one switch motor with two different methods. In other words, one method would be the 17100 contacts, while the alternate method would be the 51750 box. I would have to place a SPDT switch in the mix to switch from one method to the other. Am I missing anything?
