I just bought a pair of these on eBay; a closer look shows only one screw at the top, not two.

 

A quick online check reveals that these were made for the earlier, AC-powered 'vibrator' cars (boxes are dated '1960').

 

Will these work on DC with the T-Jet 'pancake' motors, and, if so, how are they to be wired?

 

Thanks!

Still no response, so I studied the 1960 and 1963 Instruction Manuals, and came up with this:

I used the #2 and #4 posts as "common", and the #1 & #3 for the lanes...

 

And it works!   :)
