    Hey Folks,

    I'm new here and I'm seeking some help with Lionel 5122 remote switches. I put the insulating pins in correctly, yet I'm losing power over one switch on the mainline. I have a double main, (outside loup 54' curves, inside 42' curves) and they are connected by two right and two left switches put together (hope that makes sense.) Is this an isulating pin issue or a dirty switch issue? I am a supreme novice building for my son, so any "5122 switches for dummies" suggestions will be highly appreciated.

    Bob-

    Welcome to TrainBoard!

    It's been too long for me, since I last had any experiece with those specific switches. I cannot think of any suggestions. Hopefully someone else here will have an idea for you.
