Thanks very much for the info!

The rivet would have to be carefully drilled out. A new rivet would need to be inserted and peened over.

Brasseur Trains has replacement rivets, part #20-69

I have a KW transformer on which I need to remove the "B" side switch to repair a contact. I am unsure as to how to remove the switch rivet to do so. Is there anyone who might be able to tell me how? Thanks!
