Latest project. Remote yard turnout controls for T-TRAK. Each end has full controls for both ends, and they communicate wirelessly. ESP32 for the brains and a whole lot of wiring underneath. I did the code (with help) and another club member provided the hardware.

Forgot to post this the other day, but I dug out the crappy G scale track and set it up in the driveway to test how well it would work in a larger loop. I need more power connections, but otherwise it worked well.

Since BlueSky won't let me add photos AND videos to the same post, here's a video of the entire train running on my layout.

Because I'm such a stickler for realism 🤣 here's a Santa Fe dockside 0-4-0T pulling an Amtrak Superliner transition sleeper around the layout.
That locomotive is about as old as I am. It's one of 3 that my dad gave me when I got started in model railroading, and the only 1 that still works well.
