    Posted in Model Railways - General Discussions » Turning electrofrog points into insulfrog points

    I have bought electrofrog n scale points how do I turn them into insulfrog points? Iam not doing DCC thanks

    Best way is to

    1. Sell the existing points
    2. Buy the insulfrogs

    You could just leave them as is but if you want the points to switch electricity like a insulfrog you really want to do the above. Questions like what size locos are you running - to see if you need to worry.

    DC or DCC it is not a issue.

    DC or DCC it is a seperate question in terms of these points.
