I believe I followed Lionel’s placement for fiber pins on outside rail of curved section and inside section of straight section of Lionel O gauge tubular switches. Using switches 14062, 5133, and O22 in layout.
Had power to inside loop before now not. What did I do wrong?
This is actually fascinating. Think about it.
The two loops worked before, then changed out fibre (plastic?) pins?
“Lost power to inside loop after changing fiber pins on switches”
Been at this since 1952, never, ever did a maintenance change of fibre pins on any powered switches of any vintage in 031 or 027.
I have changed out wooden matchsticks for fibre, however,
I suppose you could swap one old pin for a new one and be set.
Or, rip all the old pins out and find a (wrong?) set of instructions.
One wonders, aloud even, what the underlying difficulty was causing the pin change?
Any solution?
Can you post a picture of the switches showing your fiber pin placement?
