With my efforts to get across that powered turnouts are not wanted by most (HO) modelers (myself included), I did fail to mention in my earlier replies that I actually do agree that powered turnouts would be a good thing to have availible in S and that it just might, indeed appeal to a number of enthusiasts. So I wasn't intending to disagree... just to state another view... from a "scale-modelers" perspective.
