In the meanwhile, I have decided to use my 1033 for the accessories (just light towers, lighted buildings and streetlamps for now) and wondering if it will also be beefy enough to provide constant voltage for my 11 022 switches. Any thoughts on that?Thanks again,

Depends on how many lights are included in the "just light towers, lighted buildings, and streetlamps". 
If it's enough lights for main street in a small town, it's less current draw than if you are lighting up Broadway in Manhattan. 
The O22 switches themselves are not all going to be switched at the same time, most likely, so the key draw that is a continuous load is the light bulbs in the switch stands (and also controllers, assuming you have them hooked up, and it sounds like you would since you are operating conventionally).
Are any of your lights LEDs instead of incandescent? Or all PW style bulbs? LEDs will draw less power.
There is a rule of thumb for estimating how much power a bulb uses, but I am forgetting for sure what it is right now (5 watts maybe? - might be a little high?). Basically you need to add up all your bulbs, then also figure for how much you might need additional for toggling a turnout or 2 (unless you have something elaborate set up, you likely won't do more than 2 simultaneously, I'd assume).
