@MartyE posted:Yep a half inch piece would be nice. I've done the 1 and 3/8" trick and while it works, it is the roughest piece of trackage on my line. Lionel should just make a 1/2" filler piece.
Or - just make the dang straight side of the switch an easy 1/2” longer!
And most of us have multiple switches so that’s a lot of tiny pieces with a lot of connection points.
