Is this what your track switches look like? MTH Realtrax O72?

Do I understand correctly that you are powering the switch motor with auxiliary power rather than track power? If so have you removed the jumper between the track power terminal and the switch motor power terminal? It would have been between the first and second terminals at the left end of the terminal strip on the track switch.
