Center rail on 022 switch

Classic Toy Trains Forum Beginners Area

The center rail of my switch is higher than preceding track causing engine to hit it and stop as if I were trying to change direction. I’ve tried different tracks and they are not the problem the switch is. I have been unsuccessful in trying to push track down and it doesn’t seem to be loose either. Are the switch tracks a little higher than regular tracks because the switch is on a plastic base? What can I do to make the heights equal?

File it down??? Why is it to high and what can I do about it?

I don’t know the answer but repost in the Classic Toy Trains forum so you can find an answer faster.

Posting a picture of the problem area on the switch might help- as well as perhaps a picture of the engine that’s having issues with it.
