  • Makes the magic happen

    I got this because they feature in the Tackmat layout mat I bought as a template. Points can be switched manually but flicking them remotely brings a layout to life A motor can be easily mounted in a housing set which includes a bar that can connect the motor to the control bar on a points track segment or alternatively mounted on the underside of a board with track laid on it. Setting the motor into the corresponding slots of the housing has enabled me to experiment with the points using a maleable temporary adhesive to hold it onto the Trackmat or straight onto the floor. This keeps the motor and track n place while the motor pushes or pulls the control bar on the points track (depending which way round you mounted it). Points require quite precise alignment. Very handy while I decide what I want and how to do it. Really helpful to have all that experience without the cost of making holes in a big board. I pack it all away again and store the mounted motor in the packaging the housing came in I also managed to mount cell powered LEDs to be activated while the point motors were engaged, so I remembered to dis-engage them again. It also looks pretty cool where modern signal lights wouldn't really suit an 1800s vibe. I've got a good collection of these housings and motors now, so I can create quite complex set ups. As a budding modeller I could have Improvised these. These days I have limited time to build layouts so these are priceless timesavers.

  • Horses for courses

    If you need/want to automate a Hornby point, there are only a few choices and only two from Hornby. This does what it says on the packet and can be fitted under the layout or can be surface mounted with a special housing purchased separately. Build quality is good but, like a lot of model railway related items, prices are high for what you get.

    Much better than the old Hornby Motors. Stronger action. Actually works all the time. Strong positive action. Would recommend.

  • Perfectly adequate example of a solenoid motor. Also has the added advantage of beong more robust than the Peco product.
