Reply to "Postwar Lionel Repair Series “Updated 2/18/24”"

You seem to be a fairly good job on your repairs. I do dis-agree with one thing you did with the switcher. Instead of using that goop that you used to repair the wire with the bad insulation it would make a much more professional job if you had just replaced the wire with a new piece of super flex wire. If the wire insulation cracked it was probably getting brittle and will only get worse. I don't know anything about the product you used but have done work on engines that used some form of liquid tape that never really hardened and left quite a mess to be cleaned for proper repair. Not trying to be critical of your work. Just giving you my point of view on that particular part of it. Have fun with what you are doing. Thank you for your post. There are many here that will benefit from them.
