I have some k line
I am looking for some 027 profile 042" as well. I am in England and you just cant get them here!
Have you looked at either Ross or Gargraves switches? They just need adapter pins to work with 027 track.

My switches are 0-27 size track.
Marty, what do have because I'm using some kline swtches, and can use some more.
I have 3 K-274 Right hand manual switches. These are 0-42 and are new in the box with all the paperwork.
Marty, if the guys above don't take all of your 3 extra K-Line O27 switches, I'd buy 1 or 2. I'm just learning the virtues of not using track power to operate switches and accessories.

I know! In my case, I'm in Mexico, it is even more difficult
Thanks Marty, but I'm holding out for the automatic switches with the low profile.
I'm selling 6 LH and 3 RH 42" wide radius Lionel switches if anyone is still interested. $20 each plus shipping.
I'm in for all. Email me at djrocky@parrotradio.ca.
Thanks!
Rocky - I sent you an email earlier in the week and another this morning. I mentioned I had 6 LH and 3 RH Lionel 42" O27 switches. I forgot about the elevated level I'm building that needs one of each, and I'd like to keep a pair of back-ups. So, I can sell you 4 LH and 1 RH switch at $20 each for a total of $100 plus shipping. They are in their original box and will come with their original toggle switch controller. I think I can fit all 5 in a single shipping box pretty easily.
I also have 1 LH and 1 RH modern Lionel switch with 27" curve (not the wide radius but similar low profile and brown color) if you're interested. I'd sell those for $10 each if interested. Like the others, I have the original boxes and switch controllers.
Please let me know if you're still interested and send me your ZIP/Postal Code. I'm guessing you're in Canada with the .CA email address. I've never shipped to Canada and have no idea how much it'll cost, but will get an estimate. I'm thinking no more than $30, but honestly have no idea.
