best switch's

Ross Custom Switches. I just bought some for the first time this year and they are far and away better than any Lionel switch I've ever used.

The Ross switches are made to Lionel tubular type track.

Thanks, so you don't recommend fastrack or realtracs

or Atlas?

If you care to, do a Forum search(bottom of any page) for Gargraves track and Ross switches.  Very few, if any, problems.  John in Lansing, ILL

I don’t believe either Atlas or Fastrack is available in O22. I suspect RealTrax isn’t either, but don’t hold me to it. 

I'm looking for a remote switch not necessarily just an 022 switch. I have 042 manual switches however I want ones I can switch with my DCS remote. 

Ross switches.  Period.  Nothing else even close.

Ross. Period.

If your mainlines have reverse loops like mine, having switches with the non-derailing feature is as big plus. The Lionel postwar 022 switches with power plugs work great on my layout, can be purchased in good working order at very reasonable prices, and there are plenty of parts and easy to repair if anything goes wrong, which is very rare.

Though admittedly not realistic looking, I still love their bright lanterns and the way they look. Use 18v bulbs and set fixed voltage at 14 to 16 volts to avoid melting the plastic lantern hats.

There is no question Ross switches, Gargraves track. I have had three layouts with this combo and they are solid. Some of the switches are close to twenty years old and I still use them. This is a no brainer. Go here and look at the selection of switches you have. Endless. Good luck, Don http://rossswitches.com/switches.aspx
