February 2026 Update

All the track for CB&Q 23rd St. shops and the Atlas turntable installed. Also the East Denver Belt Line trackage, UP Pulman Shops and the UP Wynkoop Street trackage.

I have installed the first of the Megapoints Controllers (MPC) circuit boards and have wired 9 of the Kato point (aka turnout) motors. These are activated by a pushbutton connected to the MPC board. Once wired up and tested I will install the DUT Control Panel which will make activating the pushbuttons easy and the installation of LED lights to indicate the direction of the points.

This photo shows, from left to right:

  1. The screw connections to my Kato turnouts
  2. The 4 Kato MPC turnout control boards and the main controller board at the bottom
  3. The 24volt 6amp power supply and the BUS power board

These photos show the MPC controller board display (left) and one of the MPC Kato control boards (right) on my laptop.
