O scale | Operating a 1045 Lionel Flagman

Nick asks readers for help:

“I have a 1045 Lionel Operating Flagman. Currently I have an insulated piece of 10 inch tubular track with a lockon activating it. I have been advised to use a 1045C contactor switch to operate it. Does anyone have experience with both types of operation and which one works better? What are the advantages and disadvantages?”
