arms (13), then installing the control arms back on the servos

Servo driver electronics
I chose to use
Dual 3-Way servo drivers to
operate my semaphores. Each of these boards controls two
servos, ideal for my double-blade train order semaphores.
I needed to run my DC accessory power bus into Oakhill to
reach the servos. I mounted the Dual 3-Way controller on the
insulating standoffs that came with it and connected power
wiring and the servo control wiring harnesses to it.
