This is the eastbound main looking west to Oakland. The switch points are long and slender, which is the look to replicate in model form. The mechanism has an additional point movement linkage down the left side of the switch and connected to the main throw through a crank on the left hand side of the head block ties. Note that the head block ties do not extend beyond the normal line of the ends of the ties. The entire area bounded by the points is blackened with grease.
