Project 23
Using a Paperclip to secure Turnout Points in HO Scale
 This project was adapted from a YouTube video by Danny MacNevin to show how a part of a paper clip can be used to tightly secure the point rail of a turnout to the stock rail. Minor modifications are included along with an illustrative pdf file and link to the original video are included here. This helps prevent derailments when switching. This technique works well.

 

Video of this method can be found at the following link
