    Caboose Industries 218S ground throw for HO & N

    The 218S gives very good performance with Walthers/Shinohara code 83 turnouts, having plenty of travel. The spring loading makes it easy to install and align, and keeps the turnout point-rails snug against the stock rails so the wheel flanges don't "pick" the points. I purchased these instead of the 202S as to my eye the 218S is closer to appropriate size for HO than the 202. My friend uses the 202S for his O-scale layout and the 202 is a bit large even there.

  • Ground throws

    Caboose industries ground throws are a good choice for hands on operation of the turnouts on my layout. I prefer to use them wherever my turnouts are reachable. The spry tree of end adaptors include one for the Peco units I use. Although there is an adaptor for Atlas turnouts, I don't use it because the 218's throw is not enough to close the points on them. Instead, I use the 208s. It is larger but has a longer traveling throw to close the points on the Atlas. These ground throws are an excellent way to control the turnouts and feel involved with the switching operations.

  • Work well, look good

    I use these everywhere they can reached on my large layout, have about 30 installed. These are smaller and more to scale than the standard HO version.

  • Great product

    These throws with multiple heads are very versatile. Please read the instructions. Doing so saves a lot of foul language.
