I'm trying to figure out the correct wiring diagram to use a double pole, double throw switch with a charging plug. I'm trying to do this with out a dpdt center off switch. I have a 9 volt battery, and a small motor that I'm trying to reverse/forward. The battery needs a charging jack as it will be sealed up. I'm not sure where to put the charging jack into this circuit.

Guys,

I'm looking for some really sharp blades for a locomotive project I'm getting ready to start. Was told to look for surgical blades but coming up empty, big hands, little handles. Does anybody have leads to a purchase source for me. 

Looking for a chisel style blade that is much narrower than a standard #17 blade.

I have over 100 Peco Insul-Frog Turnouts on my layout and am having constant trouble with Loco's (mostly steam) shorting when they cross the frog rails in these turnouts. This is a real distraction when we are trying to have a Operating session and even more so with sound Locos, sound going on and off. I have found that the insulator piece between the frog rails is so inconsistent, some are wide and some are very close together. I have tried heavy duty finger nail polish sometime it works other times not so much. I am at my wits end trying to fix this.

I'm currently designing a small 60" x 16" HO scale switching layout on which I'd like to model an LPG distributor (ex. Walthers Central Gas & Supply) and a cement distributor (ex. Walthers Medusa Cement Co.) Time frame is 70's into 80's.

My freight car knowledge is quite lacking and I need some help identifying suitable tank cars and covered hopper models for both industries. I'd like the cars to stay around 50' or below due to the limited space I have.

I appreciate the help.

Thanks, Mark
