I found these today in a box in my shed marked old Marx switches.
Any help dating these and part numbers would be of great help. I doubt they are worth much but just don’t know. Seems to be three different styles of remote and a set of manual.
Thanks,
Kev.

LL675,
What wire goes where on the switches? I can test them tomorrow and maybe i can help you out with a set.
Tks,
Scroll down a bit and you'll see how they're wired.

Thanks balidas,
I will try them tomorrow to see if they work.
I tested these today. All but one of them slapped open and shut and I found a track screw lodged in the one that was slow but it is fine now. The controllers work too.
LL675, give me a PM if your interested in a pair. Will see if I can help you out.
