Hi, Jack,
I don't know if it will be useful to you but I have four of Earl
Eshleman's three way switches installed on the Midland Pacific. They are
driven by two compressed air Del-Aire motors and I don't know to what extent
your tortoise switches get involved in the wiring. All Earl's require is a
single pole double throw contact activated by the second motor further from
the points plus one extra gap. If you think it would help I can send you a
copy of Earl's wiring sketch or you can stop by one of these days and
inspect the installation. I am a little confused by your reference to "a"
motor. I assume you need two for a three way switch, since you have two
separate sets of points. Wally

Subject: S-Scale Modeling TOMALCO THREE WAY SWITCH
Hi,
Can any one out there provide some information on how to properly gap and
wire up a Tomalco three way switch using a Tortoise switch motor?
Thanks,
Jack Bartman
