shhhh. Don't say it out load and jinx me. All twelve #O22 switches are working correctly. I finally replaced all '50s rubber coated wire on the controllers. It's amazing when the electrons go only where you want them. The second level is in place again. My Lionel radio station is wired. I hope to install a 9VDC @ 2.5 AMP wall wart to run all LEDs tomorrow. More attractive uprights also made the "to do" list.
Once again, so few words, so much work.
