Switches as in on-off, or track direction - turnouts? What brand? Brass? Nickle silver? More info.

Maybe you should spend your money on a new keyboard. The "caps lock" button seems to be stuck down on yours.

Half ot new new price - or less.

I Don't get the 'Control' heading. There are Toggle switches, wafer switches, momentary push button switches, RR switches (turnout's) - you get the idea ...

On Off switches - that feed electricity - I get it.

ALL electrical switches have a 'life'.due to 'arc'ing, and physial wear. Unfotunately there is little 'lifetime' information on USED swithes. I WOULD AVOID.

NEW toggle switches start at $4. Save yourself future problems.
