Female connectors for Fastrack
Posted by palaz1954 on Thursday, February 6, 2014 4:50 PM
Anyone know of someplace I could buy female connectors small enough to fit on the terminals mounted under each piece of Fastrack?

Try Radio Shack - they have all kinds of stuff in their parts section that's helpful for electrical stuff.

Those won't work.  That's 5 1/4-inch and 5 3/16-inch connectors.  You need .11-inch.  Try this:

The above is what Lionel used. They are made by AMP, P.N. 42067.
