Great switch track
The switch track is great for switching without having to go to the spot and manually switch it. The wiring diagrams are somewhat confusing, especially if you want to coordinate it with another right hand switch. Unless you have some experience reading wiring diagrams and a basic understanding of some electrical circuitry, you may be frustrated trying to get them to operate properly. If you can, use an alternate 18v supply for the switch instead of the track voltage supply. If the voltage is low, running the train slow, the track may not switch and the lenght of the track has a lot to do with the voltage available at the switch. Its a trial and error thing. In any event my 9 year old grandson is thrilled with their operation.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

GET READY TO JUMP!!
These switches are pretty solidly made--perhaps too solidly or maybe not solidly enough, it's hard to tell. FIRST, let me say that I know thatI've made some track/curve connections that are applying a little more stress on the switch & curve tracks than I should be applying; however, there are 2 big problems that these switches have. First, SNAPPING THEM TOGETHER--Even if the tracks are laid straight, they sometimes JUST DON'T WANT TO EASILY SNAP TOGETHER, and unfortunately, I'VE SNAPPED OFF MULTIPLE GUIDE "BARS" IN THE PROCESS OF PUTTING THEM TOGETHER AND TAKING THEM APART. Secondly, IF THE TRACKS APPROACHING, CONNECTING TO AND CONNECTING FROM THE SWITCH AND THE SWITCH ITSELF ARE NOT PERFECTLY FLAT IN A 2-DIMENSIONAL PLANE, THE SWITCH WILL MORE OFTEN THAN NOT FAIL TO CLOSE ALL OF THE WAY AND YOUR TRAIN WILL DE-RAIL===over and over and over again. SIGH.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Could have figured out a way to make better connections between the pieces
It's ok nm if you maybe lay it down once and leave it, it's hard to put it together without disrupting the fragile copper connector tabs and if you don't get it just right you will have continuity problemsVerified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
