In this PECO TV film (Part 1 of 4) we take an in-depth look at the popular PECO PL-10 point motor and the PL-10E with its extended pin, showing you the different ways they can be mounted for reliable turnout operation on your model railway. We demonstrate how to fit the PL-10 using the PL-9 mounting plate beneath the baseboard, how the PL-12 adapter base allows for easy installation on top of the board, and how to mount the motor directly to the underside of both OO and N gauge turnouts for a neat and space-saving solution. With clear explanations and practical tips, this video is the perfect guide for railway modellers looking to install PECO point motors with confidence, ensuring smooth and realistic control of their trackwork.
Part 2 will look at the wiring and connecting the point motor to the PL-35 CDU, plus installation of passing contact switches and accessory switch housing.
