Here is the Lionel replacement parts 0-36 remote switch. For other switches just search the word switch.
thanks alot no one seems to know where to find pastrack parts
What "parts" are you looking for? Most of the switches use the same internal parts, only the base and rails are different. You need to specify what model you're looking at, command, remote, manual, as well as the radius.
Also too, Fastrack track switches are pretty reliable wrt parts failure. I have seven of them (remote) in daily use on the PER and in three yrs the only failures I've had were a cold-solder connection at a motor (fixed in a second with the soldering pencil) and an incorrectly mounted motor that permitted the motor pinion to jamb on the mating rack-gear (fixed by re-setting the motor in it's cradle).
I am slowly going about soldering all buss-bar connections on the underside of my switches as the stock crimped connections are prone to going high-resistance over time. Also, occasionally someone will post here about new switches with scrambled internal wiring. Oh, and the point-rails on manual switches sometimes need dressing to fit correctly against the outside rails.
Also, if you've broken the lantern switch stand on a remote or command (legacy) switch and don't have either the time or expertise to rebuild it, it comes as a complete unit # 610-2045-126 for most switch radiai (but always double check your particular application).
Don't ask how I know
