Hello everybody,
I finally got my track laid and I am trying it out and having a very frustrating time with some switches shorting when the train runs over them. Right now it is happening on one of my post war 07 2 witches. Everything is ok when I turn my track power on, cab 1 Lionel controller and using a Lionel T1 duplex engine. When the engine runs over to track the switch goes in between curved and straight and when I try to straighten it out it buzzes like crazy and wants to stay in that shorted position. If I turn the power off and then on again everything is ok until an engine runs over the track and the same thing happens. When it is in a shorted mode I cannot turn it in One Direction but I can turn it in another Direction without buzzing. . It happened on one switch and I replaced it and that switch seems to be ok and now it started on another switch. What in the world is going on ?????? Please help so I can get this layout working finally.
Much thanks, Jerry
