This is a 1/48th scale (O Scale) photo etched kit of a 19th century switch stand used to control stub turnouts. The kit uses a fold-up design to simplify construction. The lever arm and the pivot point have two positions to allow the stand to control a conventional two way stub turnout or a three way or double slip stub turnout.

The kit includes 4 different types of targets. Use the target that is appropriate for your railroad. They can be used on standard guage as well as On30, On2 and On3 track too.

Switch stand at Richmond, VA. The kit includes four types of switch targets to allow modeling for various prototype

Model switch stands installed on a layout. The kit does not include the bridles. I make them from N Scale printed circuit tie stock with slivers of rail joiners soldered to them.
