At my disposal I have 5 pcs turnout with meganism 74491 and digital decoders 74461 and 6 pcs oniy with meganism 74491 . I have mobile station 2.

Here is the little I know - you can't use a 72730 to operate a turnout. The 72730 is meant to cut power to side lines, lightings etc - Using 72710 to operate your turnouts alone (in a conventional way) is standard operation recommended by Märklin - Using 72710 to operate your turnouts in parallel with digital decoders 74461(in a digital way) is non standard operation not recommended by Märklin - Using your MS2 to operate your turnouts alone with a digital decoders 74461 (in a digital way) is standard operation recommended by Märklin So, shortly either a turnout is digital (commanded by the MS2) or analog commanded by a 72710 and 16 VAC power.

But this article appeared in the 04.2022 issue of Märklin Magazine. It explains 3 way of control. (please ignore my pencil notes) https://www.qldrail.net/altklost...alcontrolofsolenoids.pdf Kimball
