Perfect modern Inglenook (with GP10!)
I ran across this wonderful video of Chicagojoe28’s showing operations on the Chicago Terminal railroad.
This is a modern Inglenook configuration that would provide a lot of operating possibilities in a very small layout space. Since there is a current thread talking about smaller layouts, I thought this would be interesting to discuss on its own thread.

MRC Light Genie
Currently I am using an SPST on/off push button to turn on some lights. The lights are powered from an old DC power pack. The push button is mounted in the layout fascia. I want to eliminate the push button but still use the power pack as a power source. I know the new MRC Light Genie can do a lot of things. Can it be used to just act as a SPST switch? Right now I do not want it to power the lights, just turn them on. I some one could tell me how to do that I would appreciate it.
Thanks
