What our tables offer that is far superior to the competition:

1.) Aluminum construction - Will not warp like wood tables.

2.) Brass details - won't snap fine details like plastic parts

3.) Best auto indexing system with over 8,000 positional points to program your whisker tracks to

No more trying to make track plan fit table track spacing (ie. 5, 7.5 ,10 or 15 degrees)

4.) Works with Lionel (TMCC cab 1 , Legacy remote & LCS iPad App) & MTH digital control systems flawlessly !

 Link to page for Information on TMCC & LCS control

  5.) Small footprint of tables due to construction with aluminum, (No need for huge square top of plywood)  plus underside mounting with our mounting tabs.

6.) Most customers can install table in about an hour and be running trains

7.) Easy lift out of bridge with one wire disconnect. Great for when building layout, nothing to damage during construction!

Take a Look at what goes into our Turntables

 

with Industrial Belt Drive train for Smooth Operation!

**Our mounting tabs are set 1.5" down from top of pit wall, allowing for up to 3/4" of plywood and up to 3/4" of soundboard or foam on top of that.

If less is needed you can just shim the difference or use a double nut method when mounting to layout. All turntable sizes only need a 1/2" larger hole than bridge size.

Example a 34" turntable only needs a 34.5" hole in the layout.**
