Due to tight spacing, both near the edge of the layout and with regard to other controls, the second ganged turnout control setup required a little creative thinking.

Slowly but surely, I'm making my way through the process of installing all of the turnout controls.  With NTS 2015 on the not-so-distant horizon, need to complete this task and move on to completing the track wiring for a truly functional module.

Finally, I'm going to complete the installation of a few of the turnouts on the passenger station side of the module.  Two of those turnout controls require the use of a "remote" cable support configuration.

In two situations on this module, I have opposing turnouts that it make sense to operate them in a ganged arrangement.  The BullFrog turnout control solution allows for this using a connecting rod installed at the first of the two controls that allows having the cable assembly continue on to control the second unit.

For some of the turnouts on the passenger station side of the layout are situated close together similarly to what is in the yard.  But these are normal vertical mounted controls so getting them close together requires using "remote" controls.

The back section of the yard will all be horizontal mount controls so that the pushed in knobs will result in the points being "pushed" away from the operator.  Here is a view of the six turnout controls installed on the module.

OK, so its been some months now without progress, multiple business trips and vacations got in the way.  Anyway, the completed order for the turnout controls was received and we are ready to make some real progress.

I've received my first order of BullFrog turnout controls from Fast Tracks.  I've started with acquiring five controls and I built up four of them and installed them as seen in these photos.  This solution definitely has no issues with keeping the points in the proper position!

It has been a number of years since the Central End Module was last worked on ... what little time that was spent on modeling focused on detailing the Canyon Module and my daughter's 30° module.  On the horizon is the 2015 National Train Show to be held in Portland and I'm getting the urge to take this module to the next level so that it can be included in that event.  Given some time playing with the module at home, my real concern at this point is that the turnout control solution isn't reliable enough and I can't see moving forward with the module completion without dealing with this issue head on.
