Hi
I ma having a general problem with my manual point switches. The switches work fine when removed from the points and the point blades appear to be moving easily BUT when I connect the switch to the point it doesn't work. Moving the switch lever is fine but this does not move the tie bar. Is this a common problem and am I doing something stupid?
Would changing to using Peco point levers help? Obviously I would lose the spring function in the trailing direction, but they look simpler and therefore perhaps less tempramental...
