Teeny bit of progress on the Summit Wye, in Code 40 flex. The tail switch needs to be scratch built, and I plan to throw it and power the tail track by a Blue Point controller; I want to avoid running a bunch of wires across the liftout wye section. The challenge now is getting the four, count them, track joints fixed in place...I seem to remember someone (maybe MC Fujiwara?) using copper tie strips across his modules. Who makes these and where can I get them?The double crossing in the pic below is Horsethief Canyon Road, later Highway 138. It's still there, as is the tail track grade, if one knows what to look for...although I suspect the horse thieves may have gone on to stealing other things, like railroad shipments; hence the tall fences and bright lights at the new Summit and elsewhere Fun stuff, Otto K.

Gapmaster is what you were thinking of.GM008: N Standard Gauge - http://americantieandtimber.com/4.html about halfway down the page.
Didn't do much with little trains but had fun with some big ones:
Sorry I missed you guys! I didn't realize who you guys were until you were walking back to your car. I didn't want to run up behind you guys and startle you!
Yes! I was in the exact same boat! I got there just as you were leaving too. Sorry about that. Next time!!
