Joined: 27/02/2013(UTC) Posts: 1		Is it possible to use turnout motors from M rail and use them in C rails? Reliably? Of course best answer to my question is try it for myself but with the hobby’s costs rocketing and the fact I must down size from tons of M to a large shelf railway in C, I’d like input because I don’t want to wreck M turnouts unnecessarily. Thanks Steve
