A question for Buckeye??
Posted by KRM on Friday, December 30, 2016 1:13 PM

 
Buckeye, I recall at one time you posted a tread on some work you did on some switches where you added strips of plastic to them to make them work better. Is that correct? If so I would like to know what you used as plastic strips and how it worked out. I have a switch that the plastic is worn and I would like to build it up to repair it if I could,
 Thanks in advance,
 Kev.

Kevin I will tell you this about that. It was MTH switches. Now what you need to do may be helped by what he used. I don't know but thought I would let you know it was MTH switches Him and chief both had problems
