I have some of the DPDT relays that came from Scott's Odds N Ends several years ago.  I used these to activate my crossing gates and signals on my old layout, and they worked flawlessly.  I would like to use these on my new layout and unfortunately I have lost the wiring diagram that came with them.  Can someone out there please post or send me the wiring diagram?  Any help would be IMG_0675much appreciated.

Hopefully someone will have the wiring diagram.  Attached is some technical background info on the K10 relay and socket.

If no one comes forward with the wiring diagram, we should be able to re-construct what you need to know using the attached info.

I assume the OP will confirm one way or the other but I figure the wiring diagram might show how to hook it up to a layout - what goes to the insulated rail, what goes to the transformer, to the signal red wire, etc.  Here's a recycled photo from an earlier relay thread.  Note how the Lionel module has which connector goes to red and which to green printed right on the module itself.

For example, I notice the K10 relay calls its relay coil contacts "A" and "B".  Train transformers label their outputs "A" and "U".  Should "A" go to "A"?  Not sure this is obvious.

I see you started a similar thread a few months back.

It looks like there were no takers and presumably no one contacted you privately with the required info??

I see there's a "wiring diagram" from a company called Train Electrics (no longer in business?) which apparently had some kind of relationship with Scotts Odds & Ends.  Here's the diagram for their MTR-12 relay.  If this is what you mean by a wiring diagram we should be able to mark up this diagram to match the DPDT-1 relay.
