Lionel 022 Switch wiring help

Reply

Hi, I’m trying to wire two Lionel 022 switches together (6-14063 and a 6-23010) for a yard setup. I am currently reading a few wiring books, including the one written by Peter H. Riddle. These books suggest placing the insulating pins in the center rails of each switch. Should I do this? I’m also planning on wiring each switch individually which would require breaking the current by isolating the middle rail. Would this burn the switch coils out? How should I go about wiring each switch individually? Thanks.
