Has anyone had "hands on" experience with the Micron Art Archimedean Turnout Control?  I'm in N Scale using Peco Streamline Code 80 turnouts.

Never heard of them

I never heard of them. Are they electrically operated or a mechanical linkage?

Spookshow (Mark) review

Have read this on Trainboard:

The only "review" I have seen for the Micron Art Archimedean Ground Throw is by Spookshow (Mark) on his web site:

http://www.spookshow.net/layout5b.html

Scroll about a third of the way down the page to find Mark's comments and a couple of photos.

Midron Art Ground Throws

Thanks for the responses!  Yes they are manual, yes that's the one and I read the comments from "Spookshow" to my post at Trainworld.  He wasn't very positive.

I contacted the manufacturer, Micron Art yesterday, and this morning I received an email with a PDF attached from them that gave the complete, and I mean complete, layout and operation of these devices!!!  Great!  I went ahead and purchased one on eBay immediately to incorporate into my layout.  If I could figure out a way to attach the PDF file to a post here I'd share the info.  They certainly are worth a look if you're in the market for alternatives to Caboose-type N scale manual controls!
