Lionel 0-22 switch wiring and connection diagram

Classic Toy Trains Forum

Hi - I’ve got a rusted but moveable pair of Lionel 0-22 switches I bought years ago and never used. I am trying to decide if they are worth cleaning up; i.e., do they work electrically. I never had a pair as a kid and I don’t know how to connect them to test operation. I seem to remember a wiring diagram in CTT a while back but it does not turn up when I search the site. Any suggestions? Thanks

Do you have the controllers? Here’s a link to wiring instructions:

The Lionel service manual pages can be very helpful. These may have been printed in CTT several years ago.

Also, here is the complete instructions. Click on image for full size.
