Questions & Answers

Will this allow me to switch power from one transformer to another if I have two separate Lionel train track layouts, each with its own train?

It is not a good idea to connect two turnouts to a single switch machine because if the power is insufficient, the turnout will buzz but not throw the track or only throw it partially, resulting in derailment. I don't believe you want wiring from this switch to both transformers if you're talking about two transformers. The switch is designed to work with Atlas HO and N scale remote switches, by the way. It will not work if you have a triple rail atlas. It's better to invest in a dipole switch. for every single design

Is there a part number or a website where I can get some of the small metal strips to connect these? tia! ?

This is an excellent question. Metal connectors (number 900006) and screws (number 500003) are available from Atlas Model Railroad Company.

What's going on with my switch control box?

If you're certain it's properly wired, try sliding the switch over and pushing it down.

Is it possible to get the screws?

All of the necessary hardware is included, including two bars for interconnecting multiple switches.

Atlas switches are unbeatable
4/5

I was one of the screwed up people. Atlas switches are unbeatable. On this switch, I was missing one screw, but Atlas had extras. (If you need a spare screw, Atlas has part 500003. ) ) They're three. If you buy them from a hardware store, they might not be the right size. Yes, I made an attempt.

Worked perfectly
5/5

These are fantastic for turnout. The A brand is superior to the B brand.

I'll give it a five-star rating because it's a popular and dependable momentary switch for turnouts, but I won't be using it now that I've switched to slow motion motors
