I bought a couple of these (used) switches at a train show and they are missing the tiny magnet that allows me to move the switch back and forth. New MTH Parts site doesn't list or have any available. Anyone know what size these are, the pull strength and where to find them. I went to Michaels found and sanded down some tiny magnets to fit but they were not strong enough even with 1 1/2 placed together in the round plastic slot. They connected well but would not pull the track over. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry not very good with computers thus the copy and paste.

Thanks in Advance.
