Is that from Orient Express? I had a look at their price list and don't remember it being that bad. I will fish it out and have a look.

I'm still pontificating on what point motors to use.

I can get Tortoise for $26, Peco with accessory switch for about $15.

Certainly I am aware that even with DCC, points can still be operated via a matrix as the analogue method; I was asking if in DCC, there was a simple method using decoders & the DCC hand-controller but info from a few sources, it seems that simplicity is not the order of the day for DCC in this situation.

Orient Express quoted me $27.50. You could operate the points via the Roco Multi Maus DCC hand held controller.
