Dan, You are so right, the Lionel 022 switches are so well designed and beautiful. I have about 12 mint pairs for a new garage layout. At 48" high I can picture the glow of all those lanterns.
aussteve, I recently purchased an AF New York, New Haven & Hartford Pacific engine. I can hear the sound of their puffing smoke in my head. The last time I saw an AF Atlantic engine chugging and puffing smoke was about 70 years ago at Christmas in a department store. Can't wait to build my new layout with all those switches.
