P4 Insulated Tiebar fitted to P4 turnout
Whilst they are mainly intended to be representative of the early type of Tiebar (round throw bar) found in the UK, they can also be detailed to represent the North American type as well as the more modern UK/European type. Advantages:
    1)Insulated - so both switch blades can be bonded to their respective stock rails for short-free DCC operation.
    2) Attachment to the switch blades is by 2 simple soldered joints
    3) Because most one piece metal tiebars are too rigid the soldered joint will probably fail due to stress over time. As mine can deform slightly this is less likely to happen.
    4) Being of metal construction, it is easy to arrange operation by Tortoise etc as a simple loop in the wire is normally all that is needed to locate the motor drive rod
    5) Turnout (Switch) can be correctly ballasted
