For clarification, I'm asking specifically if the switch control lever unit for old tubular track or MTH RealTrax can be used with Atlas O switches? Or is the wiring different? I have no switches of any type in my inventory but I do know that I prefer the lever type controls over the Atlas button slide/push.
I figure I may get an easy response in either direction (pun intended 
), but the only way for me to know is ask.

Yes, but the lights will not work since the Atlas switch is not equipped to pass power in that manner. See my response here. The MTH controller can be wired similarly.
Note that any SPDT momentary switch will work.

Thank you ÜberM 
Whatever switch you use, make SURE it's a momentary contact switch! The Atlas switch coils go up in smoke in seconds if you leave them energized. You don't want a puddle of plastic next to your switch, right?
