I need a controller for a Lionel 6-12081 LH switch

Everwhere I look on the net, they want to sell the switch and controller together. Does anyone have one lying around or know where I could get one?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions or help locating a 6-12081 LH controller.

I may be wrong here but I believe just about any switch controller will operate your switch. I know I have operated others with different switch controllers.

heres a set of two on ebay

Boge:  The controllers RTC links to are the same model as your switch uses.  Pick them up, and use them with full Slack!  Praise "Bob"!
