May I ask you what is the problem?
I had a problem with Lionel's 6-23011 switches and had to replace the defective switches at my cost with GarGraves switches. No Williams locomotive could run through the Lionel switch as it has defective electronics in it and made the piece that
throws the center point crazy regardless which direction the locomotive came to the switch from, but only did this with Williams locomotives, an d one older Lionel locomotive with a two position reverse unit.
My personal opion is that Lionel is trying to keep other brands from using their track and switches, also Lionel refused to acknowledge any problem with the switch.So now that Lionel is sueing K-Line I refuse to buy new Lionel any more.

Has anyone run the Williams Golden Memory F3s on Lionel Fastrak remote switches. Any problems?

All Lionel all the time.
