Thanks for that, Andy. I have stuck them down but will reposition them. It helps to know they can be driven by the 4018s.
Many thanks

Hi Chris,
Have you adjusted the position of the motors? I have just fitted 14 pl11s to a couple of dr4018s and found that I had to move a few of them into or away from the points lever because the point wasn’t throwing properly, certainly got the oomph as you put it to throw them though, are the points switching freely by hand, may need to loosen track pins if that’s how you’ve stuck them down.
Hope this helps
Andy
