"How hard is it to attach a throw mechanism to a switch? Back in  the "day", we 
didn't grouse about such trivial nonsense. We just went  and did what needed to 
be done with what we had to do it with. Note Ed  L's and Dick Karnes' 
professional quality work with AF conversions (I  know I'm missing others, but 
not intentionally)."

In a somewhat convoluted way, "stringbob" makes the point very well.  We are no 
longer "back in the day," and whether he or Ed or yours truly can build our own 
turnouts and install switch machines ourselves is beside the point.  This is 
the 
age of "plug 'n' play."  New S people are not going to come from -- us!  They 
are going to come from "them!"
