The new Peco Unifrog Code 70 left and right turnouts arrived last week, but I was able to unbox and set them on a temporary 2 X 6 test layout until yesterday. None of the track is fastened down.

This is the right hand, the left is behind it.  trackage at foot of turnout is ME Code 70  with ME rail joiners. First track to left is Peco Code 70 and behind that Peco Code 83.  

Loc Pilot will not reset.(cv8 to 8) Did try on the program track and on the main.

Trying to set up ditch lights on a Scale Trains unit.

I need two. My harbor module has two Peco code 83 turnouts on it that I flip the points by hand. I'd like to have switch stands with indicator targets on each one. The stand itself doesn't have to operate the points, it can, but what I basically want is the target to change when I flip the spring loaded points by hand. I know several manufacturers including Caboose, Proto87 stores and RIx  advertise stands but I have no experience with any of them so I need advice.

As a steam modeler I use consists only rarely. If you have just one or two consists, it is easy enough to remember which consist has which (short) address.

We're now getting to the point that other people are bringing diesel lashups around, and when there are 10 or 15 consists, it's essentially impossible to remember which one is which. I can't be the only one that can't remember consist-to-address mappings in my head, and anyway even if I could, isn't this precisely what computers are really good at?
