Ahh, thanks. That’s what I thought but didn’t know.

Understood, but these seem to be latching, whereas the ones I have are strictly momentary, and lack whatever that is that is attached on the outside with that small band. What is that. And how does it affect the switch?

Can anyone tell me what the screw size that will screw into the brass “ferules” that hold the trucks on inside these passenger cars? Am installing some DCC lighting and am going to orient the wheelsets to pick up left rail from one wheelset, right from the other. Also looking for a “drop in”...

Does anyone know how those magnetic switches function? I purchased some but they do not have magnets attached, so they only operate momentarily when a magnet is applied. How do these switches (with the tiny magnets attached) function? Does it take a stronger magnetic field with the opposite...

Awesome. Thanks!
