I bought these. They come with small micro switches that are easy to wire. I liked the look and will take a lot of abuse being arcade buttons. They also have lighted ones.
Do you plan to run your trains conventionally? TMCC/Legacy? DCS? Lionchief (+)/RC?

JD2035RR - Nice looking button. What I cannot find is the electrical specifications for the switch. I do not know the standards for arcade electronics. Is the voltage/amperage stamped on the bottom of the microswitch? Do you know from any other source?
Asymair95 - It's an 1 1/8" hole that is needed. It won't hurt the strength as you won't be loading the weight to extremes. A wobbly 1" speed bore and your done. They are cool looking.

The switch itself doesn't say. I emailed the eBay seller who said that the specs say 125ac and 15 amps.
