I also purchased the reproduction contact rails. They are the same height as the originals however once they are installed on the original telltale brackets, they are about a 1/16" low. I placed six pieces of yellow notecard material between the slide rails and the telltale bracket and this seems like the correct amount. I verified the final height using a level over a set of the original telltale assemblies and the ones with the reproduction slide shoes and added card stock until a level reading was observed. I still may have to "fine-tune" the setup for a reliable operation. The newly purchased telltale assemblies are going to be placed in a spot where there will be adequate clearance no matter what while the original telltales really need to work on either side of a planned tunnel.
