Control Panels

I have put together preliminary views of what my control panels will look like. I wanted to share these with others because I know how hard it is to find out what other's control panels look like.

Each control panel will only take up the left half of each side's fascia. That will leave the other half for boxes for the carcards and waybills, Command Station, and phone jacks for the MRC Walkaround Controller.

I plan on adding the Atlas remote switches to my turnouts in the future and have left room for switches on the control panel. Hopefully I will add color LEDs to signal which routes are open and closed. The switches will have a capacitive discharge unit on them to help throw thow sometimes sticky turnouts. The circuit can be seen on Ken's Hobby Electronics Page for Turnout Switching
