Kato 24-840BK | Unitrack Turnout Control Switch, Black | HO & N Scale

The Kato 24-840BK turnout control switch lets you throw Kato Unitrack electric turnouts from your control panel instead of reaching across the layout. It clips onto the side of a Kato power pack, and the turnout lead wire plugs straight into the back. The same switch works with both N scale and HO scale Unitrack electric turnouts. This is the current black version of Kato's long-running 24-840 switch, with the same function as the earlier model.

Does it work with N scale and HO scale turnouts? Yes. Kato N scale and HO scale Unitrack electric turnouts use the same plug, so this one switch covers both. Can I use it without a Kato power pack? Yes. Kato's 24-842 adapter connects the switch to other power supplies. Is this the same as the blue 24-840? It does the same job. The black 24-840BK is the version Kato currently makes.
