Hi all, had to take one of these apart tonight, I thought it was interesting mechanism for making it work and wanted share a picture of it. I have only ever worked with Lionel and Marx turnouts so this was new.

It was very stiff and wouldn't reliably switch so I thought maybe some old grease or something stuck in there.

When I opened it, I mt looked like it was a slotcar motor at first. I disassembled the switch mechanism, cleaned it up and let the motor run a bit. Seems to have cleared it up as it is switching better.

Before I button it all back up any other suggestions to improve it?

Thanks!20201228_202535
