### ⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by S***R on 30 May 2025*

Rien n'est indiqué, mais semble ne pas être prévu pour du HO. Le trou de raccordement à l'aiguille est minuscule avec peu de matière autour et donc trop petit pour la commande des anciens aiguillages HO. Autrement, le matériel fonctionne parfaitement si la transmission est possible.
