Still a solenoid. Not clear if it could be used with the old motors. Seems an odd development given the increasing trend to stall motors and low power wiring.

True, and they're only showing it being attached to OO gauge trackwork.

They are also advertised with a "twin microswitch" attachment suggesting some way of switching frog polarity AND running LEDs on a mimic panel.  However none of the technical blurb mentions anything about it.

Anyone got an inside line on this????
