I recently received a boxed pair of O22 switches along with a Postwar Lionel set I purchased. The previous owner actually discovered them in a separate location of her attic from where the trains were, so I had to make a second visit to pick them up. The thing that's making me wonder is that it's a pair of right hand switches versus the right/left set that I'd expect. Were they ever sold that way, or am I missing a couple left hand switches? She seemed to remember there being a way to cross over and reverse the direction of the train when she and her brother played with the set as kids, which would make sense with two right hand switches.
